A human rights group, International Society for Civil Liberties and the Rule of Law (Intersociety) has alleged a plot to assassinate the candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 general elections, Mr Peter Obi.

This was contained in a press statement signed by its chairman board of trustees, Mr Emeka Umeagbalasi and other principal officers of the group, claiming that it has credible intelligence that Obi was being targeted.

The group asserted that the life, safety and liberty of Mr. Peter Obi, are in grave danger.

They claimed that “politico-religious extremists in the Nigerian Political Establishment have assigned the country’s Fulani Jihadists to assassinate him in coming weeks or months, or before the 2023 Presidential Election scheduled to take place at a date in February 2023.

The group said, “Intersociety is strongly and unmistakably raising alarm and alerting the world especially the Office of the United Nations Secretary-General and Presidents of the UN General Assembly and the UN Security Council; that the life, safety and liberty of Mr. Peter Obi, are in grave danger.

“These are on account of the fact that politico-religious extremists in the Nigerian Political Establishment have assigned the country’s Fulani Jihadists to assassinate him in coming weeks or months, or before the 2023 Presidential Election scheduled to take place at a date in February 2023.”

The Papacy and the Governments of United Kingdom, United States, France, Germany, Canada, Italy, Japan, South Korea, India, Brazil, the European Union and its key Member-States as well as key local and international human rights and pro democracy organizations, are among other world offices the group alerted over the assassination claims in the letter.

However, LP candidate Peter Obi was yet to personally react to the disturbing claim as of the time of this reporting.
