A man, simply known as Osas, has taken to his social media handle to narrate how his Obidient friend was wrongly accused of stealing and spent days in detention.
Obidient is an appellation given to anyone supporting the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, in the recently held Nigerian presidential election in which Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress was declared the winner.
Osas, who saw his friend’s dilemma as a payback, claimed he had severally warned this particular friend against accusing people without proofs.

“KARMA
I have this close friend who is obidient, he’s on this app and might probably read this tweet. Last year when he joined the movement, he kept pushing this “Tinubu is a Drug Baron” agenda and narrative on his socials. I showed him proof that he was wrongly accusing the man but he didn’t care for facts. He was enjoying the cruise of defaming the image of an innocent man all because of a movement.
Very early this year, money got missing in the company where he works and he was accused of stealing the money. He was arrested, spent a week in panti, spent almost a million naira to get himself out even tho his innocence was later proven. He was innocent all along but I guess the system never really cared about facts. Guess he learnt the hard way.
When you go about wrongly accusing people and cooking propaganda all in the name of a movement, U forget the sting of KARMA.
You’ll reap what you sow. You’ll reap the hate, lies, propaganda, malicious attacks& bitterness you sow. Hopefully then you’ll learn that life deems it fit that you be repaid in the same coin you’ve dealt with others.”

While Shuaib Babatunde, with the handle @chooaeb, responded: What will his coming out do gan gan? The same case that the almighty OBJ pursued snd got nothing snd we still want Tinubu to come and shalaye. I can bet it that if Tinubu hold a world press conference on that issue, it will still change nothing about those who hate him and want him to fall.
