Nigeria's Democratic Congress presidential contender, Peter Obi, has declared he has nothing to hide and is calling for the public release of all his official records, including academic documents and files from foreign institutions. Obi made this statement during an interview on 90 Minutes Africa, responding to claims by Nigeria's Ambassador-designate to Mexico, Reno Omokri, that presidential candidates have FBI files.
The former Anambra State governor revealed he is unaware of having any FBI file and has no prior dealings with the agency, stating, "I don’t know. I’ve never met the FBI." Obi emphasized his readiness for full public scrutiny, insisting that those seeking public office should be accountable. He also requested the University of Nigeria, Nsukka, to release every document from his academic file, detailing his admission and results from first year to graduation.
Moreover, Obi urged other candidates to follow suit and embrace similar transparency levels in order to exemplify societal values.
