Candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the 2023 presidential election, Peter Obi, has rejected the judgement of the Presidential Election Petitions Court (PEPC), which affirmed the electoral victory of President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the February 25 general election.
Obi disclosed this at a press briefing on Thursday evening in Onitsha, Anambra State, about a couple of hours after his counterpart in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, had announced same position.
LEADERSHIP reports that former Vice President and candidate of the PDP had rejected the judgement of the PEPC, which affirmed the electoral victory of Tinubu in the February 25 general election.
