Festus Keyamo, the spokesperson for the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council, has leveled serious allegations against Mr Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate.

Keyamo, who also serves as Minister of State for Labour and Employment, accused Mr Obi and his running companion, Datti Baba-Ahmed, of plagiarizing a former presidential aspirant’s slogan/motto and integrating the tagline as the Labour Party’s campaign catchphrase in a tweet on Sunday.

Keyamo’s claim comes just hours after the Labour Party launched its manifesto titled “It’s Possible.”

The Peter Obi campaign anchored its 62-page manifesto on seven core topics. Security, production, institutional changes, the industrial revolution, infrastructure development, human capital development, and a strong foreign policy are among them.

A closer look at the document revealed that Obi and his running mate, Yusuf Datti-Ahmed, vowed to undertake the following, among other things:

“Secure and unite our dear nation, and manage our diversity such that no one is left behind in Nigeria.
