Disregard Apapa’s Letter Seeking Withdrawal Of Obi’s Cases Against Tinubu, LP Tells Tribunal

The Labour Party urged the Tribunal to disregard the action by Lamidi Apapa, a suspended Deputy National Chairman of the party.

The Labour Party (LP) on Tuesday raised the alarm over an action taken by a self-acclaimed factional chairman of the party, Lamidi Apapa, asking the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal to dismiss all cases by his party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi against the victory of Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the February 25, 2023 election.

LP acting National Publicity Secretary, Obiora Ifoh, in a statement on Tuesday, urged the Tribunal in Abuja to disregard the “antics” by Apapa, who is a suspended Deputy National Chairman of the Labour Party.

“We are by this statement informing all arms of judiciary, including the Tribunals and courts to ignore the ignoble antics of these compromised suspended members of the party. We are also calling on the police, DSS and EFCC to arrest these enemies of democracy,” he said in a statement.

Ifoh, who later spoke on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme, on Tuesday, alleged that Apapa is seeking to jeopardise Obi’s victory with his action.

Ifoh said Apapa and his co-travellers are desperate to satisfy their pay masters who are bent on threatening Nigeria’s democracy.

LP chieftain Lamidi Apapa insists he is the party’s acting national chairman.

“Approaching the tribunals to withdraw all the cases lodged by Labour Party candidates across board is the height of subterfuge and treachery, and Nigerians will resist this ploy to plunge the nation into unnecessary turmoil.

“Their actions show that they are working against the party and that they are working to destroy the party. If they claim that they have problem with the national leadership of the party, will they also claim that they have problem with the candidates of the party. What offence has the candidates of the party committed that they are now moving around to withdraw their matters from the tribunal.

“The leadership of the Labour Party is therefore calling on the tribunals to disregard any letter emanating from our suspended National Legal Adviser, Samuel Akingbade to the effect that all our cases are to be withdrawn.

“We are also calling on the presidential election tribunal to disregard such letters from these ex officials of our party asking for the withdrawal of HE Peter Obi’s petition,” the statement noted.

Earlier in April, Apapa declared himself as the LP national chairman following a fresh legal battle in the party. In the wake of the development, Labour Party state chairmen in the 36 states of the federation disowned the factional leadership, throwing its weight behind Julius Abure as the party’s leader.

However, Apapa insisted that he is the party’s national leader as the court had suspended Abure and national officers. “Now, if that has happened, what else? The next person should take over,” he said on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.

Only in Nigeria can a suspended person be showing his shameless face to stop a court case instituted by the winner of the presidential elections, Peter Obi.

But Peter Obi is smarter than them all, even if Labour Party is overthrown and taken over by the enemies of Nigeria, Peter Obi is a party to the suit.

Unfounded fools and he knows it's completely impossible, because Peter Obi can challenge the outcome of the election based on his personal capacity as A CONTESTANT.

DOA.

NEXT

This is very commendable from the labour party national chairman Mr lamidi apapa

All lovers of democracy irrespective of party affiliation must rise to condem this jankara method being employed by APC to strike out LP challenging their stolen mandate.

We already know what lamidi was hired for by guinea man camp.
Tinubu camp have nothing to reply to the PODATTI prayers.
Tinubu is going no where. That one is a guarantee. He is wasting his time and money.
His desperation is taking to him a monumental fall.

Alhaji Lamidullahi Apaparudeen voted thievnubbu but claims he is the chairman of LP..
The babalawo should retire back to his job as an Ifa priest. Labour party know their real members..

urinating machine and his dem0nic party and that babalawo apapa will be disgraced soon

E no go beta for that malnourished man called Apapa

Feintline:
We already know what lamidi was hired for by guinea man camp.
Tinubu camp have nothing to reply to the PODATTI prayers.
Tinubu is going no where. That one is a guarantee. He is wasting his time and money.
His desperation is taking to him a monumental fall.

But the same Lamidi delivered Lagos state for Peter Obi.....

We need to remove this apatashi thing quickly.

Very good development by chairman Apapa

Only if they knew Peter Obi loves to go to court they wouldn't have asked him to go to court
Apc is now instigating factions in labour party to practice withdrawal method

That's it

Such a dreamer

Isn’t it obvious that Apapa is working for Tinubu

Oyyannna

One b****t will end this apapa story

Was there ever a letter to that effect?


It’s seems propaganda is a really effective weapon in the political space. No one cares to verify allegations

Which case does Obi have against Tinubu sef?

With his distant third position?

Even if the Presidential election is run over & over, he's not close to winning. E sure for Atiku pass him.

E be things

By the time labour party would have done away with Mr Apapa, time would have been spent and might not be redeemable. These are distractions that LP need to take seriously.

Apapa has all this while been working for the druggie to scuttle Obi's case against the stolen mandate he is holding on to. They have failed and shame awaits them. Escobar President,Osama vice, God forbid. I am Yoruba o, call me IPOB, ESN, Igbo, you are welcome

😎

😎

Tinubu did not win 2023 presidential election and cannot be sworn in by proxy.

No man born of a woman can swear in Tinubu as Nigeria president.

Know this and know peace

Wahala Wahala Wahala.... Dis is really a zoo because baboons live here.... Zazuu

We know he's working with the APC.

Okay so is this proof that Apapa has betrayed labor party and has been bought by APC?

Nzogbu2012:


But the same Lamidi delivered Lagos state for Peter Obi.....

Please keep quiet

Lamidi contributed nothing
