Former Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has debunked a photo circulating on social media showing him with U.S. President, Donald Trump and NURTW Chairman, MC Oluomo (Musiliu Akinsanya), suggesting that he met with the duo recently.

Peter Obi said: “My attention has been drawn to some pictures currently circulating on social media, falsely portraying meetings I never had. One of such images purports to show me with US President Donald Trump, alongside a fabricated claim that he praised me.”

“Another seeks to depict me with MC Oluomo in his office. Let me state categorically that both pictures are fake and doctored, and the accompanying stories are entirely false. I have not met Mr Trump recently, nor have I had any such meeting with MC Oluomo.”

“For the avoidance of doubt, if I had such meetings, I would have personally made them public on my X handle. My politics has never been about seeking praise or cheap publicity; it is about confronting the real problems of Nigeria.”
