**Edo State Attack on Peter Obi: A Coordinated Plot Against Opposition Leaders?** A recent incident in Edo State has raised eyebrows among Nigerians, sparking concerns about the safety of opposition leaders. The attack on Peter Obi and other chieftains of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) by hoodlums has been described as an attempted assassination by some government officials and their agents. According to Kenneth Okonkwo, a renowned actor and politician, the attack was a coordinated effort to silence opposition voices. He cited a recent warning by Governor Obaseki, cautioning Peter Obi to seek clearance before entering Edo State, where his security would not be guaranteed. Okonkwo had previously warned about this threat to opposition leaders, calling it a recipe for disaster. The attack took place during a visit by Olumide Akpata, the former President of the Nigerian Bar Association, to welcome him into the ADC. However, things took a turn for the worse when a convoy of vehicles, including a pilot vehicle, was met with hostility. The attackers, reportedly, chased after the ADC chieftains, shooting and blasting their way into Oyegun's house, where they had sought refuge. This incident has sparked fears about the safety of opposition leaders in Nigeria, particularly in the face of an increasing trend towards a one-party state. Okonkwo's allegations suggest that the APC-led government may be orchestrating a plot to wipe out opposition leaders, including Peter Obi. While these claims are yet to be substantiated, they have sparked a heated debate about the limits of government power and the safety of opposition voices. In conclusion, the attack on Peter Obi and other ADC chieftains in Edo State has raised more questions than answers. As the country teeters on the brink of a one-party state, it is essential to address these concerns and ensure the safety of opposition leaders. The alleged involvement of government officials and their agents in this incident has sent shockwaves through the political landscape, highlighting the need for accountability and transparency in governance.
