Dan Nwomeh, Special Adviser on Media to Enugu State Governor Peter Mbah, has reacted to the defamation lawsuit reportedly filed by former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi against former Labour Party spokesperson Kenneth Okonkwo, urging Obi to reconsider the legal action.

In a post shared on his official X account on Friday, Nwomeh questioned the basis of the lawsuit, arguing that politicians should be open to criticism and opposing views in a democratic society. He suggested that the legal action could be interpreted as an attempt to silence one of Obi’s former allies.

Nwomeh described Okonkwo as one of Nigeria’s most effective political communicators and maintained that public figures should be willing to tolerate criticism, even when it is harsh.
