The Neo Africana Centre (NAC) has frowned on the treason allegations leveled against Mr. Peter Obi by the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, describing it as baseless, malicious, and in bad taste. INDEPENDENT reports.Information Guide Nigeria
In a statement by its Director of Public Affairs, Jenkins Udu, the think tank said it was reckless for a minister of the federal republic to mount the rostrum in a foreign land for blackmail and disinformation. It accused the Federal Government and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of working hard on a nefarious agenda to give Obi a bad name.

“We note with grave concern the campaign of calumny being mounted against Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the February 25 elections. It is much more worrisome that the devious act is being sponsored and promoted by the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its ruling arm at the Presidency.
The objective, from what we can discern is to give Peter Obi a bad name and weaken his quest to retrieve the mandate that the Nigerian people freely gave him. This indulgence by the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed is sinister, cheap, malicious, and in bad taste.JAMB Result
“Peter Obi, from what we know and can see, has never called out anybody to violence. Rather, he preaches peace and insists on the rule of law. That is why he has approached the courts over the outcome of the presidential elections. Contrary to what Lai Mohammed said, Obi is only focused on the matter he has filed in court, and nothing more.NYSC Portal

We expect an administration that is working towards handing over power in a few weeks to stay focused on its transition program rather than make itself a conspirator-in-chief in the drive to discredit Peter Obi.

We need to remind the mischief makers involved in this reprehensible act to know that it is Nigeria’s reputation, not that of Peter Obi, that is being damaged.
“Obi’s involvement in the 2023 presidential elections was a watershed in Nigeria’s electoral history. This fact is even very well known to the international media which Alhaji Mohammed is trying to mislead. We urge the Nigerian government, its agencies, and the ruling APC to stop their jittery disposition towards Peter Obi.
“The contentious issues that arose from the conduct of the elections by INEC are already before the courts. Let their Lordships adjudicate on them fairly and justly. This is what Nigerians are waiting for. Dancing naked in the streets of Washington DC or any other foreign capital for that matter is unhelpful.”
