Peter Obi Was Stopped from Entering Benue – VeryDarkMan Responds to Bwala’s Claims
Nigerian activist VeryDarkMan reacts to Daniel Bwala’s comment on the absence of politician Peter Obi visiting Benue State after the recent violent attacks.
It can be recalled that Benue State recently suffered violent attacks that resulted in many victims and deaths. Many powerful and influential figures in the nation visited the state to show their concern and support for the victims.
It can also be noted that VeryDarkMan was among them. However, Daniel Bwala came out to call out Peter Obi for lacking empathy because he did not visit. In response, VeryDarkMan spoke in defense of the politician:
“Mr. Bwala, you said Peter Obi was not there and lacks empathy. Let me break it down. I’m not trying to support Peter Obi here, but in April 2025, Peter Obi was stopped from going into Benue State by the governor… Since Peter Obi and his people started the ADC thing, all of Una just dey restless. Wike go talk today, you go talk tomorrow, and them never even give am presidential ticket yet…”
Politician and former President Olusegun Obasanjo speaks on Nigeria and shares that the possibility of Nigeria surviving another civil war is quite low.
He revealed that the issues that led to the Biafra War have not been resolved and that if another war breaks out, it will be much harder to resolve.
Reflecting on the civil war, he shared “The conditions that led to the Nigerian civil war years ago still remain unresolved.”
“I was involved in the civil war, but whenever people ask me about the Asaba massacre, I always tell them I cannot give details because Murtala Muhammed was responsible for operations in that area.”
Nigerian businessman Isaac Fayose pleads with the government and President Tinubu that the minimum wage needs to be increased.
He shared that the current minimum wage of ₦70,000 is not enough considering the current state of the country and urged the government to increase it to ₦200,000.
“President Tinubu, have mercy on our people and increase the minimum wage to ₦200,000 now. I don’t think anyone can survive on the current ₦70,000 minimum wage. ₦70,000 is nothing. If we don’t solve the minimum wage problem, we can’t solve crime.”
Human rights activist and lawyer Deji Adeyanju has faced backlash after suggesting that opposition figures, including Peter Obi, could contribute to President Tinubu’s chances of re-election if opposition votes remain divided.
He stated “If Tinubu gets re-elected in 2027, blame Peter Obi and the other contractor-general. With all the insecurity and kidnapping in the country, they are the ones aggressively working for his second term by ensuring opposition votes are divided like they did in 2023.”
His comments sparked criticism from many Nigerians, who argued that Peter Obi is not the only opposition figure and should not be solely blamed for political divisions.
