Omoyele Sowore @YeleSowore

Yesterday, I saw a number of pictures of a man referred to as a “Fake Bishop”who is also a plumber “apprehended” presumably by supporters of Presidential Candidate of the @NgLabour Party candidate, @PeterObi in a market in Dei Dei neighbourhood of Abuja. His offence? He was accused of appearing as a “fake bishop” at the unveiling event of @officialABAT VP, Alhaji Shettima also in Abuja weeks ago.

I was particularly shocked that some highly respected persons on Facebook/WhatsApp @Twitter & elsewhere celebrated this mob action against this particular Nigerian. Since the advent of this election cycle we’ve seen and observed a heightened level of harassment of citizens via death threats, arson threats, verbal and now physical abuse against those who happen not to support @PeterObi’s candidacy.

A Catholic Church pastored by Rev Fr. Ejike Mbaka known as Adoration Ministry was a victim of this mob action, Femi Kuti’s African Shrine in Lagos was at the receiving end of arsonists over his refusal to support Mr. Obi for President.

We’ve seen supporters brandishing guns and threatening people who might not support Obi’s candidacy. A former media assistant to former President Goodluck Jonathan, @RenoOmokri complained consistently that the life of his one year old daughter was repeatedly threatened.

Obi’s supporters are not alone in this unconscionable act, a disabled Obi supporter was reportedly beaten for displaying his paraphernalia. However, Obi’s campaigners have demonstrated the most amount of intolerance and harassment of his opponents.

The latest mobbing of the Bishop/plumber is barbaric, unacceptable and criminal. I condemn these conducts and urge Nigerians to stand by their rights to choose their leaders without pandering to fear, harassment and threats by anyone.

No set of persons or groups should be allowed to ride roughshod on anyone simply because they refuse to follow their preferred candidate(s). It is DEMOCRACY, founded and built fundamentally on the freedom to choose.

See previous thread here: Tinubu-Shettima Bishop Almost Lynched At Dei Dei Market Abuja (Photos)

Pastor Emi L'okan @StFreakingKezy

Attention @NigeriapolicePR

At about 2 pm, Pastor Ugochukwu whom I have known before this political saga started called me that one of the pastors that grace Tinubu political occasion was about to be molested in the Dei Dei market!

But before today's incident, Pastor Ugochukwu had called me to narrate how he has been receiving all kinds of threat messages including how they would locate him anywhere he is and keel him!

The chairman of the market where he use to go and trade warned him never to ever come to the market again!

He became afraid to the point of not sleeping in his house again!
He took refuge in one of the mosques, name withheld!
The man that accommodated him spoke with me equally!
So, the event of today was what they had been planning on them!
They are measures I have asked him

to take and we take rye matter to where it must get the needed attention!
Every one of them who is part of this threat over their choice of association granted by our Constitution must be made a scapegoat!

Enough of this madness on Obi Ip! ob supporters masquerading as political urchins!
Attach are some of my conversations with him he left on WhatsApp!

Hashim Ibrahim-Bolaji @donimam4all

You people don't have monopoly of violence sha. The fact that the people you are even messing with are vastly experienced in this should scare you.

Beating up people for supporting a different candidate is not the flex you think it is.

It is a freaking democracy.

I didn't see anyone attacking the man, he was being escorted and video taped.

APC made him notorious, should they also ban people from looking at him?

I didn't even see a single Peter Obi supprter or LP emblem in the whole video.

This is tribal hate and intolerance being shown by APC and PDP in their desperation.

Vote for Peter Obi and Yusuf Datti Baba Ahmed.

How did Sowore get to the conclusion that the acts was taken by PO supporters....


It's stupid of him to presumably assume that Nigerians trying to act over the years of complete deception and lies from the political class is now term a gruesome act...


These idiots steal funds and send their kids abroad and even buy them foreign citizenships and remain in Nigeria just to keep stealing and sending the money to them.

We're tired and want a working Nigeria and will not tolerate any idiots that wants to sabotage out efforts...

However, Obi’s campaigners have demonstrated the most amount of intolerance and harassment of his opponents.

Sowore is a fool!! Sowore is working for Tinubu.

Inasmuch everyone should be free to support their candidates without physical harassment. Sowore is a fool for saying Obi's campaigners ranked highest in intolerance. Harassing a physically challenged Peter Obi supporter by Tinubu urchins doesn't hurt Sowore.

Stupid man

If the man in question impersonated,well deserved
If not, then, they need to check those guys' brains
If they are truly obidients, then, they will make their candidate lose, woefully

I don talk am already with the way things are going this people will use d the type of template some region dey use using Gun to enforce Monday sit at home....

Dem too will start using Gun to force dere candidates on odas....


All this supporters needs more warning cos when shiit start to backfire na the innocent go dey use head carry wetin dem know nothing abt....

Sowore is a fool.
He's not in the race to win, but to pull other ppl down.
Him and his fellow cashivist Deji Adeyanju are only interested in pulling Obi down.
The idiot is angry that the revolution sweeping across the country is not centred around him.
Ode

O sorry for all of them

Okay...

Sowore is as disgusting as disgust itself. How did the sycophant determine the party and political leanings of those who took part in the attack?

Sowore's every-day agenda is to peddle lies against LP, which he does to, perhaps, draw the attention of Obi who may not have heard of his name before.

###

Sowore don't know what is saying. So is obi supporters that want to lynch him.

A wise man once said.....if no one talks about you then you are nobody!!....For the fact that APC urchins, agbadorians and their conglomerates, always tend to attach every ill happenings to the combo of OBIDATTI, proves that they (APC roaches) are scared of the people's choice(OBIDATTI)!!

Meanwhile, I condemn the assault sha!!...

Nwwa

"Presumably by peter obi supporters"

Nowhere in the video did I see Labour party poster or Peter obi pic... Sowore is just a bitter attention seeker

Na dem. If other Nigerians reciprocate the hatred these people show others their wailing will not have part 2.

Sowore is retaarded, we don't like you, na Peter Obi we choose.

Okay

Some people are really sick in these country. They just want to enforce tyranny on the country.
They blame the fanatical Muslims for unnecessary killings but can't see that's what they are breeding as well .

All d politician na d same thing. Una fada

I pity igbó people, they have forgotten that they're the largest internally displaced indigenous tribe in Africa. They want to start what they can't finish. Wọn máa pa sege sì wọ́n lára

Peter Obi is Ipob terrorist candidate
