Singer and social commentator Charly Boy voiced alarm about rumours of an attempted arrest of Peter Obi, the presidential candidate for the Labour Party. Through his verified Twitter account, he disseminated this message, blaming Obi's continuous criticism of Bola Tinubu and his support for accountability and sound government for the alleged arrest attempt. Charly Boy called for strong opposition to any arrest or legal action taken against Obi, stating that it might trigger a national emergency.
Charly Boy underlined in his comments that Tinubu's administration must use caution and not arrest Obi without a valid reason. He urged Nigerians to oppose any attempt to detain Obi and issued a stark warning that such acts would have catastrophic repercussions for the country. In his letter, Charly Boy emphasised how ready the people are to mobilise against any perceived injustice and encouraged Tinubu's administration to reevaluate its intentions to arrest Obi.
