Obi not hospitalised, spokesman dismisses viral gym injury report

The camp of the Nigeria Democratic Congress presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has dismissed a viral report and photographs circulating on social media claiming that the former Anambra State governor was hospitalised after breaking his neck in a gym.

Obi’s spokesman, Idris Zekeri, described the report as false in an exclusive interview with The PUNCH on Sunday, accusing the candidate’s political detractors of fabricating the story to score cheap political points ahead of the 2027 presidential election.

When contacted by telephone to clarify the report, he laughed wildly before dismissing it as a malicious attempt to spread misinformation about his principal.

Zekeri described the images circulating on social media platforms as doctored fabrications, insisting that Obi was in good health.

He said, “There is zero iota of truth in that rumour. No such thing happened. I was with His Excellency, Mr Peter Obi, at about 7 am today (Sunday) when he got on a flight for an international engagement.

“But I can assure you that he is safe, sound and in the finest state of health, mind, body, soul and spirit. He is ready to continue to engage with Nigerians as we prepare to kick out the faceless and lying APC.

“What you witnessed is a product of these guys who are desperately looking for lies to tell every day, having failed spectacularly to deliver on the mandate that they “grabbed, snatched and ran” away with from Nigerians.

“But we are not perturbed. Mr Peter Obi is in sound health of mind and body. We are not worried about it,” he said.

When asked about Obi’s destination, the spokesman declined to disclose details, saying he had not been authorised to make them public.

“I have not been cleared to release such details. That’s also because it is a long-haul flight. As I am talking to you, I am sure he is still on that flight, which I believe should be 16 hours,” he added.

The development comes as political parties and their candidates intensify preparations for the 2027 general election, with social media increasingly serving as a platform for political messaging, claims and counterclaims.

Meanwhile, Peter Obi should look after his own health or he might collapse during the campaign. In reference to the above thread

I'll say it again from a famous quote "If you don't value your life, come out on the day of election with the intention to snatch ballot boxes or rigging".

Re: Peter Obi Was Not Hospitalised With Neck Injury - Idris Zekeri by IgOga(m):
Not disclosing his whereabout only fuels the rumour.

I don't know where he is but he's not at the hospital grin grin grin grin

he could be anywhere then, even at the hosipital
Re: Peter Obi Was Not Hospitalised With Neck Injury - Idris Zekeri by Jayhome24: 9:34am
If even he is hospitalised they will still deny it so we don't really care either way, if even he go off or deleted we don't care that is his own bloody headache and his family and supporters damn headache..

I can never wake and pray for him or wish him well, never. I don't pretend my passionate h8tred for him, I don't just don't want to see him, th is all.

Quote me I don't care and can't change my resolute about him.

Tinubu is not campaigning.

Atiku is not campaigning.

It's like they know that Amupitan has put the machinery in motion to rig the election and pronounce Tinubu reelected.

I don't know why Obi is bothering himself with campaign.

Obidients are putting so much expectations on Peter Obi and he is doing everything just to meet up and please them.

Obidients made Peter Obi to lie, talk anyhow, allow people that should be 5KM from him walk hand on hand with him, visit people that he will avoid on a normal day, Serve food in a party, buy, groundnut on the street and more useless thing he shouldn't be doing Obidients have force Peter Obi to do.

Infact they are the once control him


That man will leave Lagos to Borno, Bayelsa to Nasarawa and back to Anambra but first stop at Kano all in one day. Just to please his online Taliban group that won't go out to vote for him on election day. but only make noise online.

Dear Peter Obi, you don't owe your Obidient group anything, the day you kill yourself for this online terrorist, they will seek for another new Messiah to put under pressure. Ask Nnamdi Kanu, ask Ekpa, even Aisha Yusuf have laid low. If you like kill yourself within 2week Nigerian will forget that your ever walked on this planet.


May God help us
