In a recent interview from 43:51 with Symfoni TV on Thursday, September 24, 2026, former House of Representatives member Sergius Ogun discussed Peter Obi’s political activities and an account involving delegates in Ekiti State.
Ogun referenced comments previously made by Lere Olayinka about an encounter involving Obi and delegates in Ekiti, noting that the money reportedly given to them was described as a token.
Speaking about the matter, Ogun said, “Lere Olayinka said, ‘He was a delegate in Ekiti when Obi gave them money; it was a token.’”
According to Ogun, Olayinka was among the delegates present in Ekiti at the time of the reported incident and could therefore give an account of what happened.
Ogun stressed that the payment mentioned in the account should be viewed within the context of the political engagement surrounding the event, rather than considered without its wider circumstances.
His comments came during a broader discussion about Obi’s political activities and his growing involvement in preparations for the 2027 presidential election.
The former lawmaker also discussed the role delegates play in Nigeria’s political system, particularly during party activities and electoral processes where politicians interact with delegates and party members.
Ogun’s remarks formed part of a wider conversation about Obi’s political record, his interactions with other political figures and developments within the opposition ahead of the 2027 general election.
