In April 2023 Nigeria’s known media outlet reported that the United Kingdom government requested the details of the arrest and detention of the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, by its immigration officials at Heathrow airport in London.
The Head, Obi-Datti Media, Diran Onifade, in a statement announced that the LP candidate was last week detained in London by the UK immigration officials over alleged impersonation.
However Peter obi reaffirmed that he was never arrested, adding that he was stopped for a routine immigration check in the UK because it appears that his identity was duplicated by someone.
