Maverick singer, Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly
Boy, has claimed that the President Bola Tinubu-led Federal Government is
planning to arrest the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, in the
last election, Peter Obi, over his continuous criticism of the administration.
He warned that any attempt to arrest or file charges against
Obi would be met with resistance as never seen in the history of Nigeria.
He urged the Federal Government to tread with caution so as
not to set the nation on fire with “an illegal arrest” of Obi.
On his X handle, Charly Boy wrote: “There’s a report of an
attempt of arrest on Peter Obi, by Tinubu’s Government over Peter Obi’s
consistent refusal to back down on calling Tinubu out towards good governance
and accountability.
“Any arrest or charges against Obi must be met with a
resistance as never seen in the history of Nigeria before, and the Obidients
are ready for it. Tinubu’s government must trend with caution not to set this
nation on fire with an illegal arrest of HE Peter Obi. We call on Tinubu’s
government to desist from her evil plans against Peter Obi because Nigeria will
not remain the same.”
