LAGOS, NIGERIA – In a bold and disturbing revelation that’s sending shockwaves through Nigeria’s political landscape, award-winning investigative journalist David Hundeyin has accused activist-turned-politician Omoyele Sowore of operating as a covert agent on behalf of President Bola Tinubu, with the objective of systematically discrediting Labour Party figurehead, Peter Obi.

The bombshell claim, made in a series of detailed posts and substantiated threads on social media and independent media platforms, alleges that Sowore—long seen as a radical and uncompromising voice against the Nigerian political elite—is allegedly receiving covert funding and strategic directives from figures within Tinubu’s inner circle.

> “This is not mere political rivalry. It’s strategic infiltration,” Hundeyin wrote. “Sowore’s role in attacking Peter Obi isn’t coincidental. It’s paid work.”

Tracing the Alleged Collaboration

According to Hundeyin’s report, the collaboration dates back to mid-2022, just after the momentum of Peter Obi's candidacy exploded among Nigeria’s youth. Hundeyin claims to have reviewed classified documents, insider testimonies, and encrypted communication logs linking Sowore’s media attacks with talking points from APC media war rooms.

The journalist highlighted:

Patterned Media Assaults: Coordinated media publications from Sahara Reporters timed with APC narratives about Obi’s past as Anambra governor.

Financial Channels: Suspicious inflows allegedly traced to intermediaries linked with Southwest APC financiers, raising questions about Sowore’s independence.

Political Motive: The aim, according to Hundeyin, was to delegitimize Obi as a credible third-force option and neutralize the “Obidient” wave that posed a real electoral threat to Tinubu’s ascendancy.

Sowore’s Response

When contacted, Omoyele Sowore dismissed the allegations as “fictional gibberish cooked by political children.”

> “David Hundeyin is peddling fantasy to remain relevant,” he said in a video response. “I’ve never worked for Tinubu and will never do so. I’ve spent decades fighting the rot that he represents.”

However, Hundeyin fired back, saying,

> “Let Sowore declare his assets. Let him explain his sudden lifestyle upgrades. Let him deny these findings point by point. I dare him.”

Obidients React

The Obidient movement, long critical of Sowore’s unrelenting criticism of Peter Obi, has now erupted in fury, with trending hashtags like #SoworeSoldOut and #ObiVsSystem dominating X (formerly Twitter).

Chioma Akanno, a prominent Obidient influencer, stated:

> “We always knew there was something off. You don’t claim to fight for the people while spending all your energy dragging the one man trying to change the game.”

Political Fallout

This allegation, if substantiated, may further fracture Nigeria’s fragile opposition coalition and reinforce growing distrust in so-called independent political actors. Some analysts argue that this revelation—true or not—could irreparably damage Sowore’s credibility and bolster Obi’s claim of being the target of elite sabotage.

As of this report, no APC spokesperson has commented on the allegations.

Conclusion

With David Hundeyin's reputation as a fierce, evidence-driven investigative journalist, these claims are not being dismissed lightly by the public. Nigerians await further exposés and—hopefully—a formal investigation to separate conspiracy from fact.
