Why Peter Obi was ‘harassed, detained’ by immigration officers at Heathrow — Campaign Office

The Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Office has explained why the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, Peter Obi was allegedly harassed by immigration officers at the Heathrow Airport, United Kingdom. 

Spokesman for the Campaign Council, Diran Onifade, in a statement on Wednesday said Obi was detained and questioned for a duplication offense, which suggests that someone has been impersonating Obi in London.

Onifade said Obi, who just returned from London, where he celebrated Easter, was saved by the spontaneous reaction of Nigerians at Heathrow Airport.

According to him, Obi arrived the Heathrow Airport in London from Nigeria on Good Friday, April 7, 2023, and joined the queue for the necessary airport protocols when he was accosted by immigration official who handed him a detention note and told him to step aside.

He said, “He was questioned for a long time and it was very strange for a man who lived for over a decade in that country.
