Peter Obi’s son, Oseloka, speaks on gay allegations

Oseloka Obi, son of 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi, addressed allegations of homosexuality after a photo of him sitting closely with a friend in a UK restaurant circulated online. In a detailed statement, Oseloka dismissed the rumors as malicious falsehoods driven by his father's involvement in Nigerian politics.

He emphasized that the photo was misrepresented and simply showed him with a friend or colleague. Oseloka urged Nigerians to redirect their attention from idle gossip to pressing challenges facing the country, emphasizing his father's integrity and commitment to Nigeria's future.

He concluded by stating that those who wish to invent scandals or attack his family are free to do so, but he and his father will continue to focus on the future.
