The National Chairman of the Labour Party, LP, Barrister
Julius Abure has urged the members of the party to be on the alert, alleging
that the All Progressives Congress, APC, led government is working ahead of a
possible rerun.
Abure told his party members to get ready to further
humiliate APC and its government in the polls if their sinister plot
materializes.
He claimed the statement was based on the information at his
disposal indicating that the APC was aware that the tide of the wind is heavily
tilted against it.
The Chairman, however, urged “the members of the party to be
on the alert and get ready to further humiliate APC and its government in the
polls if their sinister plot materializes.”
A statement issued in Abuja on Monday by the National
Publicity Secretary of the party, Obiora Ifoh, showed that Abure made the
claims during an online meeting held with Nigerian-American Coalition for
Justice and Democracy led by Professor Eddie Oparaoji, the LP Diaspora Chairman
in the United States.
“Rumours have it that those in government are already
planning for rerun and this is one of the support we will be canvasing from
you.
“We should also be getting prepared because since all those
in government are already preparing for rerun we too should not be taken
unawares.
“So we will be needing your engagement and support on this
aspect if per adventure it happens today, that the election is nullified, which
is not what we are asking for, because we are asking for outright declaration
of Peter Obi as the President of Nigeria,” Abure said.
The Chairman said the party strongly believes that it won
the 2023 general election given the available evidence at its disposal,
claiming that the LP is not expecting anything less than the declaration of its
presidential candidate, Peter Obi, as the president of the Federal Republic of
Nigeria.
Abure added that, “supposing it didn’t happen as the
government is believed to be planning for a rerun, it will not also be out of
place for us to be preparing for a rerun election.”
He also said that the party had put all of its evidence
before the court and hoped that the tribunal would act in its favour.
