Remember that over the weekend, a voice recording emerged online that many claim was between him and Oyedepo during the 2023 presidential campaigns.
In the viral audio recording, a man identified as Obi requested another man, identified as Oyedepo, to help facilitate votes for him among the Christian community because the 2023 general election was a "religious war."
Obi slammed the governing All Progressives Congress, APC, and some government agencies in a statement issued Wednesday night, accusing them of propaganda.
"The present attempts by the APC as a Party, and the APC Led-government through some government officials and agencies to divert our attention from our blatantly stolen mandate is unfortunate and sad.
"These have come and continued to manifest in different ways, such as the malicious accusation of the Minister of Information, Mr Lai Mohammed, the circulation of a fake doctored audio call, and a pressure on me to leave the country.
"Let me reiterate that the audio call being circulated is fake, and at no time throughout the campaign and now did I ever say, think, or even imply that the 2023 election is, or was a religious war," Obi said.
"The present attempts by the APC as a Party, and the APC Led-government through some government officials and agencies to divert our attention from our blatantly stolen mandate is unfortunate and sad", he added.
I continue to thank all Nigerians, especially the youths and the Obidients, as they have remained focused on the core mission of a New Nigeria that is POssible even after the February 25, 2023 presidential election.
