Festus Keyamo, the spokesperson for the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council, expressed his confidence that President-elect Asiwaju Bola Tinubu will be cleared of all allegations in the election petition filed by Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party....CONTINUE READING
Keyamo took to Twitter to react to Obi’s petition, in which he called for the annulment of the February 25 Presidential Election, alleging that Tinubu was not duly elected by the majority of lawful votes cast.
Obi claimed that there was rigging in 11 states, including Lagos, Rivers, Taraba, Benue, Adamawa, Imo, Bauchi, Borno, Kaduna, and Plateau.
In response to Obi’s allegations, Keyamo assured Nigerians that all the deceit, lies, and disinformation about simple and clear issues would be busted in the court.
He expressed his excitement about the issues raised in the election petitions, stating that the Law Lords would demonstrate a huge difference between calm, dispassionate adjudication of issues and all the hoopla caused by garrulous spokespersons, misinformed documentaries, and illiterate tweeps.
It should be noted that Obi had previously challenged the outcome of the election and had also sought the court’s permission to access all the sensitive materials that the Independent National Electoral Commission deployed for the election. On Tuesday, Obi filed another suit at the election tribunal challenging the declaration of Tinubu by INEC.
However, Keyamo’s confidence suggests that the APC is well-prepared to defend Tinubu against these allegations and believes that justice will prevail.
