Abayomi Arabambi, the National Vice Chairman (South West) of the Labour Party, has filed a demand for ₦50 billion from Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), over allegations of defamation. The details of the accusations have not been disclosed in the report.

Abayomi Arabambi, the National Vice Chairman (South-West) of the Labour Party, has issued a demand for a public retraction, an apology, and N50 billion in compensation from Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC). This demand stems from an alleged defamatory statement made by Obi during a podcast interview. A letter from Neplus Ultra Attorneys outlines the ultimatum, giving Obi seven days to respond.

Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the NDC, has called for the resignation of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on July 4, 2026. The reasons behind this demand have not been specified in the report from Legit.ng.

The Presidency has criticized former presidential candidate Peter Obi for his call for President Bola Tinubu to resign, labeling the demand as "childish" and "anti-democratic." Obi's request followed the resignation announcement of Keir Starmer, who cited public dissatisfaction over economic challenges as a reason for his departure. The criticism highlights ongoing political tensions in Nigeria.

Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, has called for President Bola Tinubu's resignation, alleging that his administration is involved in "grand corruption." Obi referenced a recent International Monetary Fund consultation report that claims there has been N8.83 trillion in unbudgeted expenditures under the current government. He made these statements in a document titled "Grand Corruption: Nigeria’s Greatest Threat."

Kenneth Okonkwo, a former spokesperson for the Labour Party Presidential Campaign Council, has publicly criticized Peter Obi, stating he is indecisive and unfit for the presidency. Okonkwo claims that Obi betrayed him by filing a defamation lawsuit, contrasting Obi's actions with those of Atiku Abubakar. He announced the end of his relationship with Obi in July 2024 during an interview.
