The Federal Government has challenged Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, to clarify his position on a leaked audio of a conversation he allegedly had with a prominent Nigerian cleric.
Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the Minister of Information and Culture, stated this while speaking to the media in London, United Kingdom.

According to an online newspaper, the audio clip was an alleged conversation between Obi and Bishop David Oyedepo, the founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide.
Mohammed suggested that Obi clarify what he meant when he said the leaked conversation was “a fake doctored audio call.”
“I need to draw the attention of Nigerians to the recently-leaked audio of a conversation between the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, and the cleric.
“The leaked audio rattled Nigerians because we heard Obi pleading with the cleric to interfere on his behalf to convince Christians that this is a religious war and they should support him,” he said.
In the aftermath of the leaked audio, the minister noted that Obi came out to say that it was “a fake, doctored audio call.”
“If it is fake, it means it never took place. But if it is doctored, it means there was that conversation but it was manipulated.
