Peter Obi’s aide clears air on LP presidential candidate, wife being arrested by DSS

Val Obienyem, the Media Adviser to Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, in the 2023 general elections, has debunked rumours making the rounds that his principal was arrested by the Department of State Services, DSS, at his home in Anambra State.

Obienyem, in a statement released on Tuesday, described the reports as false and baseless.

According to him, Obi was not even in Anambra State at the time of the alleged incident.

Obienyem said: “As of Saturday, Mr Obi was in Rwanda attending important engagements. He has since returned to Nigeria and is currently in Edo State, where he is actively involved in party and national matters.

“There was no DSS operation at his residence, and no arrest was made.”
