During a tour of the United States, Julius Abure, the national chairman of the Labour Party (LP), announced that the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, is expected to be declared the president of Nigeria by the tribunal.
This news comes as Obi and his party are disputing the results of the presidential election that took place in February, where Obi came in third place.
A request has been made to the court to invalidate the win of Bola Tinubu, the candidate from the All Progressives Congress, APC. Abure, who is currently traveling in the United Kingdom and the US, stated that the presidential election petition tribunal, PEPT, is scheduled to deliver their verdict on or before September 16th.
“Following Peter Obi’s participation in the 2023 general election, we changed the political narratives in Nigeria. We gave them a run for their money,” he said.
“They have murdered sleep and they will sleep no more. They have stolen what is not for them and they will not sleep until we recover it all.”
