Former Borno State governor Ali Modu Sheriff alleges that Peter Obi, a presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), wants to divide Nigeria. Sheriff makes the claim during an interview on Channels Television’s “Politics Today.” He links his allegation to remarks attributed to Obi calling on President Bola Tinubu to resign over Nigeria’s security and economic conditions. According to Sheriff, Obi’s stance reflects support for Biafra and, in turn, promotes division within the country. Sheriff says Obi has not condemned Biafra or the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and argues that Obi should state publicly whether he believes in the division of Nigeria. Sheriff also maintains that anyone seeking to lead Nigeria should stand for the country as a whole rather than for a particular section. The reports present Sheriff’s comments as accusations made during the interview and do not include a direct response from Obi or his party in the cited coverage.
