The Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Communications and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, has responded to the threat by Peter Obi, the former presidential candidate of the Labour Party, to file a lawsuit against him.
Onanuga recently accused Obi and his supporters of being behind the planned nationwide protests against the Tinubu-led government due to the ongoing hardship in the country.
In response, Obi, through a letter signed by his lawyer, Alex Ejesieme, urged Onanuga to retract his statement and issue an unreserved apology within 72 hours.
Additionally, Obi demanded N5 billion in damages from Onanuga for the allegation.
Reacting, Onanuga, in a fresh post on his official X handle on Tuesday, said: “I am still waiting for the letter from Peter Obi’s lawyer threatening a N5 billion suit and demanding an apology to Peter Obi over the planned ‘revolution’.
“Let me just tell Obi and his lawyer: I am not afraid of any legal action. We shall meet in court.”
