The Labour Party’s (LP) Presidential Candidate, Peter Obi, has rejected the Presidential Election Petitions Court decision on the February 25, 2023 election, calling it unjust.
Obi, who addressed on Thursday in Onitsha, acknowledged the Tribunal’s adherence to the statutory time frame and expressed respect for the court’s views and findings but disagreed with the judgment’s rationale and conclusions.
As a presidential candidate and on behalf of the Labour Party, he declared his determination to promptly contest the ruling through the appellate procedure provided by the Federal Republic of Nigeria’s Constitution.
Noting that the Tribunal is not the last authority in this subject, Obi stated that the duty now rests with the Supreme Court, in which he has faith.
Obi claimed that his legal team has already been given the go-ahead to initiate an appeal against the Tribunal’s judgment.
He showed unrelenting commitment in his pursuit of justice for himself and the tens of thousands of followers across the country whose election mandate he claimed was unlawfully obstructed by the Independent National Election Commission (INEC).
