The Labour Party's Peter Gregory Obi rejected the widely circulated rumor that the United Kingdom Government had apologized to him for his imprisonment on Friday. The African Action Congress (AAC) Presidential Candidate, Omoyele Sowore, responded to this news today.
Stella Okunna, Peter Obi's former assistant, said yesterday that the former governor of Anambra State was allegedly impersonated and had a duplicate identity when he was stopped, delayed, and questioned by UK immigration officials in London on Friday.
Many were perplexed as to how someone who has been in the country for more than ten years could be treated in such a manner after being grilled for such a long time by the Labour Party.
After all of this, another story that was said to have gone viral today stated that Peter Obi had received an apology from the UK government for his incarceration at Heathrow Airport.
The former governor of Anambra State, who claimed to have gotten no letter of apology from the British Government about his imprisonment by the Immigration Department, refuted and rejected the report, nonetheless.
Omoyele Sowore responded to this today on his verified Twitter account by pointing out how Peter Obi promptly refuted the false information that the UK government had expressed regret for his incarceration by immigration officials.
He went on to say that he keeps telling people that Peter Obi's detention in the UK is more complicated than he makes it seem. He did this because he knew that telling lies about the British Government's apology might make his situation worse, which is why he has been holding back on telling the story himself.
Sowore posted on his Twitter handle;
“See how Peter Obi quickly denied the fake news that the United Kingdom Government has apologized to him over his UK Immigration debacle? I keep telling folks that Peter Obi detention in the UK is not as simple as he tries to present it, he knew that lies about apologies from the UK Government might compound his situation. This was the reason he’s avoiding telling the story himself. Lying is second nature to Peter Obi”
