Human rights activist and lawyer, Barrister Deji Adeyanju, has disclosed that the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 elections, Mr. Peter Obi, has filed a lawsuit against him.
Adeyanju, who confirmed the development through a statement on his verified X (formerly Twitter) account, expressed satisfaction that the matter would now be settled in court.
He wrote:
“Finally, Peter Obi has sued me. I am actually happy and relieved that he didn’t chicken out in the end. Interestingly, he dragged me all the way to Anambra State, even though he is almost always in Abuja where I reside. But no shaking, we move. I will prove in court that Peter Obi is corrupt, a bigot, and a fraud. You will all be entertained, I promise.”
The activist added that he is prepared to defend his claims before the court, describing the legal battle as one that will “entertain Nigerians.”
