Apapa: Obi’s meaningless petition against Tinubu was dismissed in less than 120 seconds
The Lamidi Apapa-led faction in the Labour Party (LP) has blasted its presidential candidate in the last election, Peter Obi, for filing a “meaningless petition” against President Bola Tinubu at the Supreme Court.
According to Apapa, Obi’s petition challenging Tinubu’s victory at the February 25 polls was dismissed in less than 120 seconds for lack of substance.
While congratulating President Tinubu on his victory at the Supreme Court on Thursday, Apapa bemoaned Obi and his legal team “for presenting the worst election petition ever in Nigeria’s history”.
In a statement on Saturday by spokesperson for the group, Abayomi Arabambi, Apapa said: “It should be on record that Peter Obi’s frivolous and bland petition was dismissed in less than 120 seconds by the justices of the apex court last Thursday.”
He continued: “The victory of President Bola Tinubu is well-deserved. It is a testimony of hard-work, resilience, dedication and love for the nation.”
The group also congratulated Atiku who, according to them, gave his best interest this election.
“The Former Vice President remains, a veteran and not a failure, he gave it all but destiny at times speak,” the statement read.
