Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah denies allegations that he ordered the withdrawal of a private venue for a town hall meeting featuring Nigeria Democratic Party presidential candidate Peter Obi and his running mate Rabiu Kwankwaso in Enugu.
Mbah says the claim is false and states he did not give any directive to stop or remove the event location. Both outlets report that his position comes through a statement shared on his social media account.
While the articles agree on the substance of the denial, they frame the claim slightly differently: one focuses on the allegation about withdrawing the event venue, while the other emphasizes the governor’s assertion that he did not stop the town hall meeting itself. Neither summary indicates additional evidence beyond the governor’s response, nor does it describe follow-up actions around the event.
