Just In : Obi Rejects Atiku’s Invitation For ‘Justice’, Gives Reason
Peter Obi, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the February 25 general election, has declined the invitation extended by the People’s Democratic Party candidate, Atiku Abubakar, to join forces in seeking “justice.”
In a statement released by the Labour Party National Publicity Secretary, Obiora Ifoh, the former Anambra Governor emphasized that he was present at the Supreme Court with the sole purpose of “reclaiming his mandate.”
The statement said: “The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi is presently in the Supreme Court seeking to reclaim his stolen mandate and he is focused on that.
“He has been in the vanguard of ensuring a just nation where justice must be the watchword, and he will not stop until Nigeria achieves a leadership it truly deserves.
“Obi has pontificated severally on the need for leaders to be good role models and to live a life worthy of emulation. This he has done by publicly putting his credentials in the open for verification. Nigeria will get better when men of integrity and honour drive the affairs of the nation.
“We therefore welcome every other interest willing to join us in our pursuit of a nation where justice shall reign.”
