The 2023 presidential candidate for the Labour Party, Peter has called for the prosecution of those responsible for the incarceration of Quadri Alabi, the teenager who was framed up by some area boys.
Obi made the call after he met with Alabi and his lawyers on Friday, April 18, 2025.
In a photo post shared on X, Obi said, Alabi is finally free after enduring unjust and illegal incarceration.
He also appreciated his lawyers including Inibehe Effiong, Dele Farotimi and Hassana Nurudeen for their efforts in securing the release of Alabi.
He wrote, “I listened to Quadri today, and one thing stood out clearly: his unwavering desire for education. Despite all he has been through, his only dream is to return to school and complete his education and I will make sure he gets it.
“His determination is not just inspiring; it is a call to action, and I am committed to ensuring that he gets the education he desires and deserves,” Obi added.
He stated that as a people, the job does not stop at securing Alabi’s release but also ensuring that those responsible are held accountable in line with the provisions of the law.
“In addition, we must not stop at his release. Those responsible for his illegal incarceration must be held accountable. As we strive to build a Nigeria where fairness and integrity prevail, we cannot afford to allow such acts of criminality to go unpunished.
“I once again thank the lawyers and everyone who stood and remained unrelenting for justice.
“Together, we will build a Nigeria where education, freedom, rule of law, equity and justice, care and protection of the less privileged in our midst will stand as the foundation of our democracy,” Obi added.
