Spokesman for the defunct All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign council, Festus Keyamo, has reacted to the plot to withdraw Labor Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi against president-elect Bola Tinubu.
Naija News Remember that Peter Obi in a lawsuit filed before the Presidential Election Tribunal seeks to reclaim his ‘mandate’ that he said was stolen at the polls.
However the Labor Party on Tuesday accused a party faction of planning to stop the lawsuit filed by Peter Obi against Bola Tinubu’s declaration as president-elect.
The party’s acting national publicity secretary, Pastor Obiora Ifoh, made the claim in a statement released in Abuja on Tuesday.
ofoh said, “Daily, the evil intent of the breakaway faction of the Labor Party, led by the suspended National Vice President, Lamidi Apapa, continues to manifest itself and just this morning, our legal team was faced with the stark revelation that these men have furthered their plot to approaching all the courts where our many candidates filed their electoral petitions derived from the recently held general elections”
Reacting via his Twitter page, the Minister of Labor and Employment said that LP games are getting interesting.
According to Keyamo, the first argument in court could be on the question of the party’s bona fide chairman to have the authority to decide the continuation of the case.
He wrote: “This is getting interesting; the first argument in court may be who is the real chairman of the Labor Party to have the authority to decide on the continuation of the case! We will try to resolve that matter first.
