A faction of the Labour Party, LP, has threatened to suspend
its 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi if he fails to clarify the
allegation of using his late brother’s credentials.
The Lamidi Apapa faction of the party warned that Obi will
be suspended if he fails to clarify the discrepancies surrounding his academic
records within 48 hours.
A statement by the spokesman of the faction, Abayomi
Arabambi said Obi should clarify the allegation of him impersonating his late
elder brother.
Arabambi condemned the spokesman for the Peter Obi/Datti
Ahmed presidential campaign council, Tanko Yinusa for claiming that the
allegation that Obi was impersonating his late elder brother was a farce.
Arabambi said, “The Labour Party at this juncture wishes to
demand an answer to the following: what is the name of this so-called elder
brother of Peter Obi who read computer science?
“What year did Peter Obi’s elder brother die? What was the
name on the secondary school certificate and University of Nigeria Nsukka
certificate? What is the nature of the business of his brother? Where is Peter
Obi’s birth certificate? What was the name on Peter Obi’s birth certificate?
“Why is it that the name on his birth certificate is
different from the name on his school certificate? Why is the name on his
school certificate different from the one written on his UNN certificate? Which
university mobilized Peter Obi for his mandatory one-year NYSC? Why is the name
on his NYSC certificate different from the name on his University of Nigeria
Nsukka certificate?”
According to him, “One would have expected Peter Obi to
offer a satisfactory response to Nigerians as to the reasons for explicit
discrepancies in his academic records to reveal his true identity and save our
party from further avoidable national embarrassment.
“But rather than toe this line of challenge, his attack dog
descended to the arena of political somersault, leaving facts to promote audio
fiction thus confirming our position that Peter Obi is using the name and
certificate of his dead elder brother.”
Arabambi said it must first be made clear to the public that
there was no evidence provided by Obi against the allegations of forgery,
impersonation and inconsistencies contained in his school certificate,
University of Nigeria Nsukka certificate and NYSC certificate.
“The Labour Party furthermore demanded to know why Mr Obi
only deemed it fit and necessary to only submit his WAEC certificate wherein he
failed to obtain the least requirement of credit passes in both mathematics and
English which are necessary requirements to gain admission into any University
in Nigeria.
“The Labour Party is also asking Mr Peter Obi to explain the
circumstances that made him to have different names in different schools,
public documents in such a shrouded and fraudulent manner, rather than
employing blackmail and unnecessary sentiments.
“We challenge Mr Peter Obi to provide answers to all the
questions raised above to clear the air of uncertainty about his person.
“Failure to do this within the next 48 hours will attract
his suspension from the Labour Party,” he said.
