Obi Now Castigates Judicial Verdict He Once Benefited From – Presidency by kaydee007(m): 10:35am On Nov 07, 2023
The Presidency on Monday threw a jibe at the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, saying that the businessman once benefited from judicial pronouncements when he reclaimed his mandate as governor of Anambra State in 2007 but he now castigates the same when the Supreme Court ruled in the favour of President Bola Tinubu on October 26, 2023.

The Special Adviser to the President on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, made this known in a statement hours after Obi faulted the Supreme Court verdict which affirmed the electoral victory of Tinubu, the then candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the February 25, 2023 poll.

“We are at a loss as to how the copy-cat Obi and his faction of Labour Party convinced themselves they won an election in which they came a distant third,” Onanuga said.

“At the press conference where he tried, in vain, to gaslight Nigerians with false claims and innuendos, Mr. Obi contradicted himself. Here was a beneficiary of judicial pronouncements in the past now castigating the same court because its judgment did not go his way.”

Onanuga said Obi and his party should know that the Supreme Court or any other court does not give judgment based on public opinion and mob sentiments. “Judicial pronouncements are based on evidence, precedents and the rule of law,” he said.

The presidential aide said the ex-governor of Anambra should quit criticisms and congratulate Tinubu.

“Having admitted that the Supreme Court ruling brought an end to litigation and any challenge to the bona-fide of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the validly elected leader of Nigeria and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, Obi should have congratulated President Tinubu for his victory and pledge his support, in the spirit of statesmanship.”

The Presidency also welcomed Obi and his party to play the role of the opposition and start preparing for another shot at the presidency in 2027.

“We hope by then he would campaign on issues and not whip up religious and ethnic sentiments as he did in the last campaign.”

The Judicial arm did not do obi a favour. They simply did their job by following the constitution of the nation.

This time around , the judges decided to cripple the constitution and go on a shopping spree with a criminal.

The constitution is the guide of the nation.
Judges do not need to do anyone a favor.
Their job is to give judgements according to the constitution.

Ariwola and his gang failed themselves , failed Nigeria and Nigerians.

Same judiciary that APC has taught the use of technicalities instead of facts to legalised rigging, identity theft, certificate forgery/racketeering, double-dual citizenship. Same judiciary that helped crooked criminals like Akpabio, Ahmed Lawan, Tambuwal, Dave Umahi to the Senate against the electoral act? Continue!

Nigeria judges are now broad daylight criminals who swallow bribes in exchange for judgment based on the slightest technicalities.

Judges and Lawyers should start getting trained in monotechnics and not universities.

You mean in the good old days when judiciary was judiciary? You are right! What we have now is a shadow of the real judiciary.

Right now the highest bidder buys the victory. Well I will not blame OBi because he bank on the popular slogan "last hope of the common man" but unfortunatel"otilo"

Na technicality dey dey now.

Peter Obi is worse than a bad looser

He believes it is better for a Military Coup to take Over and
For the FG to Collapse than for him to loose Elections

And many of his Obidient supporters are the black version of Adolph Hitler's Nazis
they just can't handle opposition to the extent of intimidation of Supreme Court Judges

Obi didn't benefit from the judiciary. The judiciary never wanted to pass the judgement in his favour. It was the fall out of the then governor with his godfathers that gave the judiciary (sponsored by the same godfathers) no other option than to give the right judgement in punishment for ngige. These south west touts should stop making the ever corrupt judiciary look like they were once good

Based on constitution 1) rigging 2) forgery 3) identify theft 4) narcotic trafficking and money laundering, all in the constitution. 5) double nomination 6) 25% of fct

Verdict from judiciary: completely abandon the constitution and used technicalities

Example: double nomination
Ruling summary: well APC were not aware that such law existed in the constitution, therefore we forgive them, case closed

Obi suppose to castigate the judiciary because, of the romance between tienibu and the judiciary.

Fact!
