Yunusa Tanko, national coordinator of the Obidient movement, says Peter Obi, the 2023 Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, and some chieftains of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) were attacked on Tuesday in Benin city, Edo state capital.

In a post on X, Tanko said Obi and the ADC chieftains were attacked at the residence of John Odigie-Oyegun, a chieftain of the party.

According to Tanko, armed individuals followed them from the ADC Secretariat to the residence of Chief John Odigie-Oyegun after the formal declaration of Olumide Akpata into the African Democratic Congress [ADC].

They shot at the gate and destroyed several vehicles in what appears to be a survived assassination attempt on our lives.
