The spokesperson for the Atiku/Okowa presidential campaign council, Daniel Bwala, has reacted to the apology tendered to Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi by the British government over his illegal detention at Heathrow Airport in London.
As a result, the UK government on Thursday afternoon admitted that its immigration official wrongly handed the former Anambra governor a detention note in search of a man who impersonated him to commit perjury, forgery, and identity theft.
British authorities said the uncomplimentary treatment he received was “completely unacceptable,” and thus issued a personal apology.
“Frankly, the Immigration Official’s action – has been appalling – and we are sorry,” Immigration authorities apologised
Taking to his official Twitter handle, Bwala said the British government has now apologised to Peter Obi, and it is better a “respek” is put on his name.
According to him, everyone is now waiting for the United States government to tender an apology to Nigerian President-Elect, Bola Tinubu for illegally collecting the forfeited dollars.
Daniel Bwala wrote, “British government apologized to Peter Obi for illegally serving him a detention note.
“Can you now put a “respek” on his name? We are now waiting for the US government to apologize to Tinubu for illegally collecting the forfeited dollars. Asiwaju fans oya start throwing the insults.”

A few days ago, the All Progressives Congress (APC) admitted Tinubu, indeed forfeited the sum of $460,000 to the government of the United States of America, USA, in 1993 following a drug trafficking allegation.
It, however, refuted the claim that Tinubu was convicted by the US as a result of the forfeiture.
In other news, Kanyi Daily reported that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has called on Non-profit Organisations, NPOs, in the Northeast to join hands with it in fighting the financing of terrorism and money laundering in the region.
The call was made by the Special Control Unit against Money Laundering, SCUML of the commission.
