Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi has denied claims in the social media that some eminent Nigerians have donated the use of private jets for his presidential campaign.
The claim which went viral on social media platforms elicited mixed reactions with political opponents claiming it as one of Obi’s hypocrisy.
But Obi has refuted this on Sunday in a tweeter post while also appreciating “ such expression of hopes.”
But in a post on his Twitter page on Sunday, Obi said he has not received any such offer as claimed.
“Recently, several social media reports have alluded that some eminent Nigerians have donated their personal jets for my use during my campaign. In as much as I appreciate the expression of such hopes, I have never received any of such offer,” he wrote.
“I pray that those eminent Nigerians mentioned, are not unduly distracted by such social media utterances. May God Almighty bless those eminent Nigerians always.”
