The Audio Call Is Fake, We Are Taking Legal Action Against Peoples Gazette - Peter Obi

Labour Party's presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has said that the audio call being circulated of his alleged conversation with clergyman, Bishop David Oyedepo, is fake, IGBERETV reports.

Voices identified as that of Obi and Oyedepo were heard in a leaked audio phone call that went viral last weekend. In the audio, the voice believed to be Obi's asked the voice believed to be Oyedepo's, to help facilitate votes for him amongst the Christian community, saying that the 2023 general election was a ‘’religious war''.

But in a series of tweets posted on Wednesday, Obi stated that the audio recording is fake and that at no time during and after the elections has he even implied that the 2023 election is, or was a religious war. He said his legal team has been instructed to take appropriate legal actions against those who released the fake audio online.

He wrote;

"I continue to thank all Nigerians, especially the youths and the Obidients, as they have remained focused on the core mission of a New Nigeria that is POssible even after the February 25, 2023 presidential election.

Before, during, and after the campaign, it is on record that I have maintained my commitment and focus on issue-based campaign about a New Nigeria that is POssible, a shift of emphasis from consumption to production, a New Nigeria characterized by inclusion, justice, equity, fairness, and prosperity.

I repeatedly stated that no one should vote for me based on Tribe or Religion, but rather on the assessment of Character, Competence, Capacity, Credibility, and Compassion that can be trusted to create a New Nigeria!

The present attempts by the APC as a Party, and the APC Led-government through some government officials and agencies to divert our attention from our blatantly stolen mandate is unfortunate and sad.

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 a 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 attempts to manipulate Nigerians is very sad and wicked. Our legal team have been instructed to take appropriate legal actions against Peoples Gazette and others.

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 jumpstart prosperity through agricultural, industrial, and technological revolution remain unchanged.

Elections are over, and we are in court to retrieve our stolen mandate. Let me reiterate that we are doing so through all lawful and peaceful options in line with our legal system and constitution, and I continue to implore all Nigerians to remain peaceful and law abiding.

Those fixated with heating up the polity, creating divisions, tensions and hatred within and outside Nigeria should remember that Nigeria is our only country. Our focus should be on how to address the litany of challenges facing us, such as:

flawed electoral processes, the parlous state of our economy, unsustainable debt burden, lamentable unemployment and inflation, insecurity, and multi-dimensional poverty. A New Nigeria is indeed POssible, and God will help us. -PO"

We knew that already and we are not bothered. The semi illiterate bunch who thrives on crime and illegality to survive are the ones creating problems where there is non. They know they can't survive in a sane clime, so they must hold everyone down to their level to be able to be relevant. Was it not their leader who created fake bishops in the first place, who started a religious war if not him?

May all those good for nothing sycophants and their paymasters never have peace in their midst untill Nigerians elect the leaders their desire. APC and their zombies have shameless lies and propaganda as their stock in trade since their inception. May all their supporters encounter all the problems cost by APC and their cronies multiple times unless they apologize in all the news papers in Nigeria.

Pandora lamba pls rest cos the damage has already been done.
It's only your ever gullible & naive supporters that may pretend that the audio leak is fake.

We understand that in political parlance the best approach is to deny it outrightly but ur reliable spokesman Kenneth Okonkwo & ur media aide Valentine has foreclosed such escape route.

Honesty is the best policy. Thank you daddy!

This one is still focused on winning minor battles instead of the war itself. I think he's too myopic to be a good strategist.

The most embarrassing thing about the audio to me is not the content, but the dangerous desperation expressed in the tone of Mr Obi.

I just can't imagine a 'supposedly would-to-be president' of the most populous black nation sounding like an incoherent effeminate teenage girl. Subjugating himself to a priest he is meant to control in a despicable manner all in the guise of seeking for votes. What an abberation!

Boko Haram and bandits are more reasonable than those tinupigs . They are not even ashamed when the world is calling them zombies of drug president elect , or dementia retired pampered wearing president elect. Even pigs in animal farm still try of salvage any atom of dignity but those tinupigs are publicly exposing their self inflicted curses on their generations while dancing naked shameless for world view. I regretting sharing the same country with this tinupigs who sold their humanity for drugged bullion van looter because of ethics bigotry.

I am appalled by so called enlightened youths who are taking sides as politicians use us as chess pieces.
Fake audio or not.
I don't care about APC, PDP or LP.
All I care about is we need leaders who will just do right for once. Even if it is for one term.

All I know is P.O's case must have some weight to it. If not why leaking audio convo now?
Shey Una don win election?

where in the Qur'an or Hadiths is this found?
You are a sad little fanatic. Read the Holy book for your self and don't listen to what politicized Imams tell you lots.
How can others embrace your religion when you are so discriminatory ?
Even in the Holy month you don't have love for others, labeling them as "infidels and Monafiqs". Shame on you

After four days of shameful silence, you have come out to deceive your gullible supporters. The low budget Trump would have taken to Twitter to debunk it immediately if it were false.

Obi the clown. We know your near-silent feminine voice. You are the one in that audio.
Please go to court as usual. You think this is 2004 when the court gave PDP's Chris Ngige's mandate to you?
Keep dreaming and encourage your obidient follows who reason delusionary to dream with you.
