FCGs reports that Peter Obi has denied claims making the rounds that he sponsored the funeral of Arise TV anchor, Rufai Oseni’s father. Reno had made the allegation on social media on August 25. He wrote

‘’AriseTV and Mr Rufai Oseni should kindly answer the following question. Did Mr Peter Obi, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, fund the funeral of Mr Rufai Oseni’s father by giving him money in cash or via electronic means, either directly or through a third party, in August 2022, and has that influenced Mr. Oseni’s open bias in favour of Peter Obi, whereby Mr. Oseni usee the AriseTV platform as a medium to campaign for and launder the image of Mr Peter Obi, and his undisguised personal animosity towards me for my refusal to support Mr Peter Obi’s Presidential ambition?

I counsel them to think very carefully before they answer.”
