Thugs disrupt Peter Obi's Benue visit for second time
Premium Times NigeriaLO·NG·about 17 hours ago
A human rights lawyer publicly advised Nigerian opposition figure Peter Obi to drop his diplomatic approach and adopt fierce resistance, following reports that political thugs blocked Obi's convoy from entering Benue State. The incident and the lawyer's call signal rising political tension in Nigeria ahead of elections, though the claim of thug involvement is sourced from a report and not independently verified. This matters as it reflects escalating confrontational rhetoric in Nigerian opposition politics.
