Labour Party (LP) Awaits Peter Obi’s Decision on Political Future Following Supreme Court Ruling

The Labour Party (LP) has indicated that its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, will soon make an announcement regarding his political trajectory after the Supreme Court dismissed his petition challenging President Bola Tinubu’s election victory.

Yunusa Tanko, the spokesperson for the LP Presidential Campaign Council, expressed disappointment in the Supreme Court’s decision, noting that they had presented their case comprehensively.

He mentioned that the party would now turn to the “masses’ court” – the public – to assess the judgment in light of current circumstances and the credibility of the existing leadership.

Tanko clarified that the LP had requested the court’s interpretation of the 25% qualification criteria for the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and the adherence to electoral processes outlined in the Electoral Act. However, the court did not accede to their request.

He emphasized the party’s commitment to abiding by the principles of democracy and affirmed their right to address concerns if they perceive any infringement.

Tanko stated, “We’ll continue to be law-abiding and follow the dictates of democracy.

Don’t forget that democracy also gives room for people to speak on issues if they feel they are being offended. So we have done our bit and we will leave this particular issue now to the masses’ court.”
