    Leaked audio: Obi threatens lawsuit, says it’s fake

    Peter Obi, the candidate for the Labour Party in the February 25 presidential election, has claimed that the leaked audio of a supposed discussion between him and Bishop David Oyedepo, the founder of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, is fake.

    According to the recording, Obi told Oyedepo that the presidential election was a religious battle and suggested that the clergyman assist him in pleading with South Westerners and Kwara State residents, particularly Christians, to support his campaign.

    In response, Obi said in a statement he directly signed on Wednesday that he never referred to the election as a religious war during his “issue-based campaign.”

    He also lamented alleged attempts by the ruling All Progressives Congress to divert “attention from our blatantly stolen mandate.”

    He said, “These have come and continued to manifest in different ways, such as the malicious accusation of the Minister of Information, Mr Lai Mohammed, the circulation of a fake doctored audio call, and pressure on me to leave the country.

    “Let me reiterate that the audio call being circulated is fake, and at no time throughout the campaign and now did I ever say, think, or even imply that the 2023 election is, or was a religious war.”

    The former governor of Anambra State said his legal team had been instructed to take appropriate legal actions against the online media platform that published the leaked audio.

    “While we call on all concerned Nigerians and the international community to implore the APC and the APC-led government to stop their nasty attacks, my focus and commitment to lawfully and peacefully retrieve our mandate to secure and unite our nation, take Nigeria from consumption to production, pull millions of Nigerians out of multidimensional poverty, especially in the north, and jump-start prosperity through agricultural, industrial, and technological revolution remain unchanged,” Obi added.
