Human rights activist Deji Adeyanju has alleged that Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, offered him money during a private meeting ahead of the general elections.
Speaking in a live interview on Channels Television on Friday, Adeyanju said he rejected the offer, insisting he does not accept inducements from politicians.
The claim comes days after Obi, through his lawyer Alex Ejesieme (SAN), served Adeyanju with a legal notice, accusing him of spreading “false and defamatory statements” on social media. Obi’s legal team warned that unless Adeyanju retracts his remarks, the former Anambra governor will file a defamation suit.
The development has stirred heated reactions online as Nigerians debate the clash between activism and politics.
