Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s (LP) presidential candidate in the recently held presidential election, said that “some evil designs were being hatched against him and his supporters.” In addition to saying that “campaigns of calumny were being perfected to defame his character and diminish his hard-earned integrity in the coming months,” Obi asserted that “efforts will be made to taint his image.”
Obi said that one of the goals of the schemes would be to undermine his support base and mislead the general public in a message posted on his verified Twitter account on Monday.
I am aware of some evil designs being hatched against me and my supporters in the coming months. Efforts will be made to taint my image. Campaigns of calumny are being perfected to defame my character and diminish my hard-earned integrity.

He commented just after President-elect Bola Tinubu was sworn in on Monday.
Despite their concerns about the state of the polity, the former governor of Anambra State advised Nigerians to maintain peace and adhere to the law.
He said that he would never back down from the resolve to collaborate with other like-minded Nigerians to break the nation’s curse of lost chances and dashed dreams.
