President Bola Tinubu’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Temitope Ajayi, has described the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi as a guilty man who cries the most.
Ajayi challenged Obi to be honourable enough to recant the deliberate mischaracterisation of his experience at the Nnamdi Azikwe International airport in Abuja.
Obi had accused officials of the airport of wrong doing in an incident regarding wrong parking.
He claimed that his vehicle was unjustly clamped at the airport as part of attempt to frustrate him.
But the Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo had charged Obi to publicly apologise to airport officials and pay a N25,000 fine.
Keyamo disclosed that an internal investigation showed that Obi’s car was unjustly parked.
According to the minister, CCTV footage from the airport showed that Obi arrived at the domestic terminal on July 4, 2026, at about 8:28 p.m in a vehicle driven by a police officer.
He said that after dropping Obi and two other occupants, the police driver parked the vehicle in a designated drop-off zone and left it unattended while entering the terminal, contrary to airport regulations.
Reacting, Ajayi posted on X: “Mr. Peter Obi is a typical example of Yoruba “asunkun ro ejo”( a guilty person that cries the most to narrate a story just to win sympathy).
“Now that the Minister of Aviation has released the CCTV video and full statement of what actually happened at the airport, I hope Mr. Obi will be honourable enough to recant the deliberate mischaracterisation of his experience.”
