Former presidential candidate Peter Obi has dismissed trending photos circulating online that allegedly depict his son, Oseloka Obi, with a gay partner.
The images, which trended on social media, depicted a man celebrating with another man believed to be his partner on the partner’s birthday.
A northern influencer on X, with the handle @Waspapping_, shared the photos with the caption:
“Peter Obi’s son and his partner are out there enjoying life, but Obidients will turn a blind eye. Well, congratulations to the soon-to-be couple.”
The post and many others have gained traction on social media.
Reacting to the controversy, Obi’s media aide, Valentine Obienyem, in a statement debunked the claims, stressing that the photos do not feature Obi’s son.
The statement, titled “Fake Picture, False Claim: Obi’s Integrity Remains Untouched,” read:
“The picture currently being circulated is not that of Mr. Peter Obi’s son. Having searched every corner of his life and found nothing incriminating, mischief-makers resorted to posting this false image, claiming it to be his son. Let it be clear: this is not his son. They should look elsewhere for the scandal they have fruitlessly hunted for years.”
Obi, who contested the 2023 presidential election under the Labour Party, is expected to run again in 2027.
