Once again, we are confronted with the propaganda and deception of paid agents. But Nigerians are wiser now, and the truth must be told.

On December 9, 2024, I was part of the team that paid a courtesy visit to elder statesman Afe Babalola. The discussion referenced the defamation case involving Dele Farotimi, which was later withdrawn through the intervention of the Ooni of Ife, not because Peter Obi “begged,” as falsely claimed. That narrative is a deliberate lie.

In establishing a fact not lies. I am glad that Mr. IK Aboyi, who initiated and witnessed the meeting of another fake narrative , has already set the records straight.

Peter Obi does not engage in personal attacks, nor does he condone them. In the case of Dele Farotimi, he merely raised concerns about the manner of his arrest and detention, a point that was clearly understood by the elder statesman.

It is also well known that Peter Obi does not gratify or entice individuals with money. Instead, he channels resources into education, youth entrepreneurship, healthcare, the almajiri system, and support for the sick, the poor, and the neglect in society. His focus has always been on lifting people out of poverty, not on patronage politics.

Seeking mercy for another person while also demanding accountability when one is falsely defamed are not contradictions—they are both legitimate paths. Only a twisted mind would call that hypocrisy.

On Nigeria’s debt, the figures speak for themselves. The Debt Management Office confirms that by Q1 2025, Nigeria’s debt had risen to ₦149.38 trillion, up from ₦144.67 trillion in Q4 2024. To claim otherwise, simply because the naira collapsed, is nothing but deceit.

Regarding the “Yes Daddy” audio, Peter Obi, like any responsible leader, reserved his legal options. Choosing not to waste years in court does not equate to guilt. It is simply strategy. The agents of propaganda know this but prefer to spread lies.

As for the alleged WhatsApp broadcast against Lagos, there is absolutely no credible evidence linking Obi or his team to such messages. The same paid agents keep recycling lies without a shred of proof.

Propaganda thrives on lies because the truth exposes their failures. These individuals parade themselves all manner of titles, but in reality, they are failed propagandists desperate for relevance. Their words carry no weight among Nigerians who are tired of deceit, corruption, and manipulation. The fact that they keep dragging Peter Obi’s name is only to gain attention.

Nigerians deserve better. The Obidient Movement will always stand for truth over propaganda, service over selfishness, and facts over fabrications peddled by paid agents.

A New Nigeria is POssible

Signed,
Dr. Yunusa Tanko,
National Coordinator, Obidient Movement
