Edo Commissioner for Information claims Peter Obi’s visit caused a stampede that led to death of three persons but fails to name the exact location of the stampede

The Edo State Commissioner for Information and Communication, Paul Ohonbamu, says the recent visit of the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, to the state led to a stampede that caused the de@th of three people.

Ohonbamu made the claim in an interview with Channels TV today July 21. He however failed to mention the area in the state where the stampede reportedly occurred.

Ohonbamu said

‘’Yes, intelligent report brought it out, Two d!ed in the hospital. They rushed them actually. Let me tell you, many of these things, we do not alarm the public with some of these things. You know that anywhere Obi enters, there is this euphoria. People do not know him deeply, they just see him and then say ‘This is Obi, the messiah they want and they rush after him. That euphoria, the ecstasy can cause stampede but it did not reflect in votes’'

When asked if it was at the school of nursing Obi visited when he went to the state the said stampede occurred, the Commissioner said

‘’Apart from going to that school, he went to other places. He cannot just go to that school and go like that. ‘’

When asked when the stampede happened, he said July 7.

When asked where exactly did the stampede occurred, he said

‘’In Benin, they took some of them to the hospital. I did not follow Peter Obi to where he followed but I know that is where it happened. I was supposed to address the press on it but they said do not panic the public. Peter Obi knows all this.''

Do I need 1 million characters for it? Do I?

This is what happens when God caused your enemies to keep on embarrassing themselves and simply made you a spectator to amuse yourself with their unfolding self inflicted show of shame

Seems like only illiterates and touts were appointed by the illiterate Okpebholo.

You go explain explain tire. No evidence.

Oya follow me to the station, let's kontinu dare ( in Jagaban's voice)

Need more characters?

Three people died in stampede. He does not know where they stampede occured

All he knows is that the stampede occured where Peter Obi was?

Even a kid would know this is a lie

Like Governor, like commissioner

That is how they will continue to struggle.

It is very hard to malign an innocent man. Also very hard to defend incompetence

You can only deceive idiot's online not sensible people

I wonder how that Edo governor became the flag bearer not to talk of being voted as governor. This show the level our politics has degenerated to. We live in trying times and it will take a long time before this country can get better

Anytime your enemies make mistakes and shoot themselves is a blessing 🙌 for you.

Like Governor, like commissioner. Governor struggled during his first budget presentation… one billion, six hundred thousand billion…‘em sorry.

Edo people, una sorry.

Question: where exactly did this incident happen?
Answer: you say!

Even Tony Kabaka for be better commissioner for information than this one wey make hat like helicopter blade.

No state government has the right to stop any Nigerian citizen from entering their state.

However, in the case of Peter Obi, as a top personality in the country, he is expected to obtain security clearance from the chief security officer of the state, which is the governor.

The governor was right in his comments; it was the media that misinterpreted his statement.

Edo is shining every body is happy una no go thank govnor



People die when obi come last time and news no carry am, Edo people sef nor kw say people die when obi visits, obi himself non kw say people die for him head. Now only Governor and apc people for Edo kw . This okphebolo with him earthquake name dey carry him second term dey joke o

funny people everywhere. There is no news of the stampede

Peter Obi will continue to haunt them and remain their worst nightmare not because of noise or propaganda, but because his presence reminds Nigerians of what genuine leadership could look like. The desperation to manufacture a tragedy without facts only exposes how threatened they feel. You don't fight a shadow this hard unless it keeps you awake at night.

These people have no case against Obi.
We are showing them their error but they're still wallowing in their mediocrity, trying to prove what is not. For the first time, I'm ashamed to share same state with these people.

I am ashamed that Edo state government will not swallow the humble pie and let this executive blunder go away on its own. The more they release statements, the dumber they sound. Rest nau!!!

What a daft response....just negodi the type of ppl we call leaders, Edo can do better.

Crazy defence of the Legend of Mumu Governors Order.


Mumu

What do you expect from an illiterate governor and his commissioner.
Our God will keep shaming them

APC
Party of evil corrupt criminals who hate Obi for his Popularity and exemplary style of politics
.
Nigerians know better though, no matter the hate, propaganda, lies even on Nairaland by paid warriors and compromised owner, Nigerians know who their enemy is

Apc oo. Let them keep making a fooI of themselves lol

God have mercy! A whole commissioner for information cannot communicate properly. He doesn't have any information to give

TemplarLandry:
Hobi and bad news are inseparable.
The only good thing about him is his pretty wife.

Make shame catch u small. No be everything dem dey do "iPad boys job" or BMC work ontop.

30k hustler

It's very sad, but in 2027 we will do away with their master in chief of their APC useless government

Fools in government.
When power is given to a fool, disaster is inevitable.
