The Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Office has revealed how the Presidential Candidate of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi was harassed by immigration officers at Heathrow Airport, United Kingdom.
Spokesman for the Campaign Council, Diran Onifade, in a statement yesterday said the former Anambra State governor was detained and questioned for a duplication offense which suggests that someone has been impersonating Obi in London.
According to Onifade, the LP’s Presidential Candidate who is just back from London, where he celebrated Easter, was saved by the spontaneous reaction of Nigerians at Heathrow Airport.
Onifade recalled that Obi arrived the Heathrow Airport in London from Nigeria on Good Friday, April 7, and joined the queue for the necessary airport protocols; when he was accosted by immigration official who told him to ‘step aside.’
