Charly Boy Criticizes Deji Adeyanju Over Bribery Claims Against Peter Obi
Entertainer and social critic Charles Oputa, better known as Charly Boy, has taken a swipe at activist lawyer Deji Adeyanju over his recent claims against former presidential candidate Peter Obi.
Adeyanju had alleged that Obi once tried to bribe him during the 2023 presidential campaign, saying the Labour Party flagbearer invited him for a discussion and later handed him a brown envelope of money, which he claimed to have rejected.
Reacting to the allegation, Charly Boy dismissed it as a blatant lie and warned Adeyanju not to drag Obi’s name through the mud. He accused the activist of chasing clout and working for selfish interests, saying Adeyanju could easily sell out for “30 pieces of silver.”
Sharing his thoughts in Pidgin on X, the self-styled Area Fada said Obi remains one of the few politicians who still give Nigerians hope for a better country, unlike Adeyanju who, according to him, has reduced himself to an errand boy for money-driven politics.
He cautioned that such “reckless and irresponsible behavior” could land Adeyanju in legal trouble, stressing that the struggle is for a new Nigeria and not for clout-chasing.
It has been reported that a Nigerian won the 2026 Spelling Bee World Championship, which was held in Shanghai, China. The winner, Chinedu Great Okdediachi, has now returned home to Delta State after his victory.
It can be noted that the student had already emerged as one of the Gold Award winners in the Middle School Group category.
“Congratulations once again, Chinedu! Your success continues to inspire young Nigerians to pursue excellence through education. Welcome home, Champion!”
The young star has made Nigeria proud by winning the international competition.
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has stated that his administration’s economic reforms have helped stabilise Nigeria’s economy and placed the country on a path toward steady growth.
He said “My reforms have stabilised Nigeria’s economy and put it on a path of steady growth.”
The President added that the reforms are creating more opportunities for development across the country.
However, many Nigerians reacted online, with some questioning the impact of the reforms and saying they have yet to experience the positive effects.
Nigerian politician and FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, has said that he is aware many civil servants do not like him.
He shared that he understands why he is unpopular among some civil servants, explaining that funds previously spent on unnecessary conferences are now being redirected to road construction projects.
He said “Some people say conferences for corruption and I say what is that? You are going for conferences to do what? These are ways government funds are being diverted. I say put this money in this road here and the people will get the impact.”
