The presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, AAC, in the just-concluded general election, Omoyole Sowore has said reports about Peter Obi of the Labour Party, LP, getting detained by UK Immigration is “fishy”.
A famous Mass Communication scholar, and Deputy Vice Chancellor of Paul University Awka, who is also a confidant of Obi, Prof Chinyere Okunna, revealed this on Wednesday morning on her Facebook page.
Obi was reportedly detained for hours and interrogated after his British Airways plane landed at Heathrow Airport on Friday morning.
But Sowore has questioned the authenticity of the incident.
He tweeted: “There is something suspicious about @peterobi’s UK “Immigration Story,” because I don’t see how a modern biometric passport with his fingerprints and biometric identity could lead to his being seen as an “impersonator” or a clone.
“More curious is why he’s sending third parties to tell half of the story. Something fishy is going on! #Revolutionnow
