Mr. Peter Obi, former presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), has claimed that certain government agencies are resorting to name-calling and arranging town hall meetings to address his case.

Obi, however, said the development does not bother him, adding that many people would be shocked if they knew what he goes through everyday.

The former Anambra State governor made the statement on Friday in Canada while responding to questions about the last general election in Nigeria.

“If I tell people, and I say it every day what I go through, you will ask me why am I in this thing. You will ask me why am I still doing this; who do you still have to bother? But I’m in it. Every now and then you see various agencies of government, tools of government, even when I am not running any election, calling me names every day. They now organize town hall meetings just for me. No problem. It doesn’t bother me. Let’s keep doing what we were doing. We did well. And we should be proud of it and continue in that trajectory”.

The LP’s presidential candidate was in Canada for a “thank you” tour to appreciate Nigerians living in the country for the support offered him during the 2023 campaign/ general elections.
