Bayo Onanuga, Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Communications and Strategy, has responded to Peter Obi’s threat of legal action. Peter Obi, the former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, had demanded an apology and N5 billion in damages from Onanuga, who recently accused Obi and his supporters of planning nationwide protests against the Tinubu administration due to economic hardships.
In a letter from his lawyer, Alex Ejesieme, Obi called for Onanuga to retract his statement and issue an unreserved apology within 72 hours. Onanuga, in response, posted on his official X handle on Tuesday: “I am still waiting for the letter from Peter Obi’s lawyer threatening a N5 billion suit and demanding an apology to Peter Obi over the planned ‘revolution’. Let me just tell Obi and his lawyer: I am not afraid of any legal action. We shall meet in court.”
