The Department of State Services (DSS) has arrested an individual for allegedly threatening Peter Obi after an attack on him in Benin, Edo State.
Last Tuesday, Yunusa Tanko, national coordinator of the Obidient Movement, reported that Obi and some leaders of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) were attacked at the residence of party chieftain John Odigie-Oyegun.
Shortly after the incident, a social media user, Udeme Stephen, allegedly claimed responsibility for the attack on his X account (@stevetom788) and threatened further violence against Obi, including during a planned trip to Rivers State. In his post, Stephen said Obi was “lucky” to survive the Edo attack and warned that his men would “handle” him in Rivers State.
A security source confirmed that DSS operatives quickly launched a covert investigation, using forensic tools to trace the suspect to Rivers State, where he works as a teacher at Jessica High School in Eliozu, Obio-Akpor LGA. The 26-year-old man was subsequently arrested and is now in DSS custody.
