The Labour Party have stated that the Party’s flag-bearer during the just concluded 2023 Presidential election, Peter Obi is yet to be served an apology by the UK government after he was detained by that country’s immigration earlier in the week.

A report was circulating on social media regarding a purported apology by the British authorities after Obi was released, however, the Labour Party stated that no such action took place.

Addressing the issue, Diran Onifade Head, Obi-Datti Media said:

“We have been receiving enquiries with regards to a so-called apology, purportedly issued by the British Government or any of its agencies, to our Principal Mr Peter Obi, in respect of a routine Immigration engagement with him, as he arrived London, for a brief visit, last Friday, the 7th of April.

“We would like to state emphatically that we are not aware of any such apology, and have not issued any statement whatsoever, in that regard. While we continue to examine any dubious or political motive, on the part of the perpetrators of the identity theft, we have every confidence in the ability of the British authorities to resolve the matter, to a conclusion.”
