To Beatrice Itubo, Peter Obi Offers His Apologies

AccordingAccording to a tweet, I sincerely apologize to Mrs. Beatrice Itubo, the Labour Party candidate for Rivers State. I was not notified or aware of her illness when I visited Port Harcourt a few days ago.

The Labour Party Presidential State Coordinator in Rivers State and other Party stakeholders greeted me when I arrived in the Philippines. We had a fruitful discussion, and I informed them that I was there to formally accept the Rivers State Government’s invitation and that I will be returning for our party’s rally and other LP events in the near future. I would have visited our candidate before or after the event had anybody indicated that she was ill, but they didn’t. No matter how late, I was going to stop by the campaign headquarters.

and I did it at about 6.30 p.m. I genuinely hope you recover quickly, my darling sister, and want to reassure you of our positive working connection. God’s blessings are with you continually. -PO
