Presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi, has called on Francis Fadahunsi to retract his alleged inflammatory remarks ahead of Saturday’s Osun State governorship election and apologise to the people of the state.

Obi described the alleged remarks as “alarming and unacceptable,” warning that political threats and intimidation could heighten tensions, frighten voters and potentially trigger electoral violence.

He further urged security agencies to closely monitor inflammatory statements and ensure the protection of voters, election officials and other citizens before, during and after the polls.

It will be recalled,Fadahunsi, who represents Osun East Senatorial District, came under criticism after a video surfaced in which he was allegedly heard directing his supporters to “kill” members of the Accord Party ahead of the election.

fadahunsi however, denied making a call for violence, saying he instructed his supporters to “kill Accord” with votes, not through physical attacks.
