Just in:Obi Offers Scholarship To Mr. Ibu’s Kids, Donates N5M Amidst Encouragement To Live In Peace
By Kayode Sanni-Arewa
The 2023 presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi has offered scholarships to all the children left behind by Mr. John Okafor popularly known as Mr. Ibu who died recently.
The scholarship would enable them to study in any university of their choice. He also donated 5 million Naira each to the family.
Obi, however, encouraged all the family members to always live in peace and unity to enable them preserve the legacy of their father.
Some people who reacted from their X handle such as: @Syngar said “Reno has closed his eyes on this charitable gesture extended to late Ibu’s children by Peter Obi. A scholarship to study in any university of their choice abroad. If it were issue that has to do with character assassination he would have made it go viral.”
Another said @Blygn93 “We donated over 100million to Mr. Ibu, instead of the family to use the money for his health they instead started fighting over it.”
@ObiLampoon “HE Peter Obi has once again shown what true leadership looks like! Offering scholarships to all of Mr. John Okafor’s children and donating 5 million Naira each to the family? Now that’s what I call putting your money where your mouth is—literally!While some are busy.”
@ifeanyioko22279 “May God almighty continue to keep you and protect you and your family my excellency for your kind gesture you will definitely live long do I have not met you in person but you are one in a million commenting from Malawi.”

Edo guber: LP’s Akpata remains a front runner, set to capture Edo
By Kayode Sanni-Arewa
Less than twenty-four hours to the start of voting in Saturday’s governorship poll in Edo State, a rash of fake news has broken out.
Leading parties in the election have had their fair shares of fake news either indicating the withdrawal of their candidates or disqualification by a Magistrate Court or Supreme Court.
For instance, Olumide Akpata of LP was said to have withdrawn from the race and thrown his support for Asue Ighodalo in a statement that read smoothly and appeared convincing.
THE CONCLAVE sent the statement to Akpata via WhatsApp for confirmed.
He responded by sending the same statement with FAKE NEWS boldly stamped on it.
He said he was set for victory at the poll.
There was also a news flash about the Supreme Court disqualifying Asue Ighodalo of the Peoples Democratic Party, with a sign off: More details coming….
A Magistrate Court in Abuja was also reported to have disqualified Monday Okpebholo of the APC from the poll on account of age falsification.
The APC campaign organisation had swiftly put a lie to the report by deploying the court papers in the circumstance.
