  "summary": "Nigeria Democratic Congress presidential candidate Peter Obi has broken his silence on allegations by the current Anambra State government that he owed money during his tenure as the state's governor. Obi, who served from March 2006 to March 2014, denied any claims of owing salaries, pensions, gratuities, or other funds to the Anambra State Government. The state government, headed by Governor Chukwuma Soludo, recently stated that it is focused on repaying loans obtained by previous administrations, including those of Obi and Willie Obiano. Obi emphasized that he left office with no outstanding obligations, stating that if any person owed money to him, he would end his 2027 campaign immediately.",
