Peter Obi Clarifies His ‘Arrest’ In London Airport | READ DETAILS

Mr. Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the recently concluded 2023 election, has clarified his supposed ‘arrest’ at the Heathrow airport in UK by immigration officials.

Making clarification on Monday while appearing on Arise TV, Peter Obi said he was never arrested in London, rather he was stopped for a routine immigration check which did not exceed twenty minutes and he was accorded all the respect during that procedure.

“I was stopped for a routine immigration check and all these lasted for a maximum of 20 minutes. I was treated with all due respect. I was never arrested nor detained”.

“I lived in the UK in the 90s from 1993 to 2005. From that time till now is a period of 30 years and I have never been questioned, arrested or detained in any country in the world.

“I have never been arrested or questioned in any manner. I have never committed any offence. So, what happened was a routine immigration check and that happened not less than 20 minutes and I was given all due respect by the authorities” Obi clarified.

Peter Obi added that he has no dual citizenship and would never apply for one.

“I am a Nigeria, I do not have a dual nationality because I believe in Nigeria, I have never and I will never apply for citizenship of another country” he stated.
