Alleged Attacks on Peter Obi’s Supporters During LP Campaign Rally in Lagos

It has been reported that some supporters of the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, have claimed to be the victims of attacks by hoodlums during the candidate’s campaign rally in Lagos State on Saturday, February 11th, 2023.

Social media platforms were flooded with videos and photos of individuals who appeared to have sustained bruises, as well as images of vandalized buses and cars that were allegedly used to transport supporters to attend the party’s events.

The attacks have been attributed to one of the other prominent political parties in the state and its presidential candidate.

An activist and Obi supporter, Rinu Oduala, said, “‘Obidients are bullies’. But one party is currently trying to prevent LP rally in Lagos by sponsoring attacks with thugs armed with machetes and guns. The wickedness of our ‘intellectuals and celebrities’ isn’t talked about enough.”

Another tweeter, @anthonyabakporo, said it was sad to see that some thugs were attacking Obidients.

“They just did at Jakande but we were able to get them to TBS, They are receiving treatment. Please signal us if you experience any difficulties. Don’t let notting (sic) stop you! Be here!,” he added.

“Just look at the way thugs are attacking innocent folks and their cars/buses because of their support for a better Nigeria. Well, nothing good comes easy. We are too close to give up now💪 Nigeria must be great,” he tweeted.
