PETER Obi, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) on Monday, August 28, 2023, has denounced an allegation made against him by Reno Omokri, a former Presidential Aide, noting that there is a need to “clarify a few issues, especially since a third party is involved”.
According to media reports, the former Anambra State Governor said his name has been mentioned in a recent rumour involving Rufai Oseni, an Arise Television presenter.
He wrote on his X (formerly Twitter) page: “It is not true, cannot be true, and will never be true.
“Everyone who understands or follows my approach to things will attest to the fact that I do not give anyone money to promote my name.”
He added that he “has never and will never” monetarily induce any journalist to speak.
