The Labour Party’s Peter Obi and his running partner would face punishment if the All Progressives Congress’ (APC) candidate Bola Tinubu wins the upcoming election, according to Femi Fani-Kayode, the APC’s spokesman for the presidential campaign.
The former aviation minister called them a curse and an affliction in a series of tweets in response to claims that Obi’s fans, known as Obidients, had attacked Tinubu.
If elected in 2023, Fani-administration Kayode’s would “deport” Obi to Malaysia, where he would be questioned, according to Fani-Kayode.
The vice presidential candidate of the LP, Datti Baba-Ahmed, would be prosecuted for allegedly using hate speech against members of the ruling party, the APC leader further threatened.
He wrote, “They (Obidients) are a curse, an affliction and a plague all rolled into one.
“By the end of February 2023, after we crush and bury them in the election, they will be confined to the dustbin of history never to rise again.
“After we come to power we will deport their leader to Malaysia where he has many questions to answer and we will make sure that his running mate faces criminal charges for his hate speech against members of the LGBQ community and for inciting others to target and kill gays”.
