The National Chairman of the Labour Party, Barrister Julius Abure, has assured Nigerians in the United States that Peter Gregory Obi, the party’s candidate in the February 25 presidential election will soon be declared President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
A statement on Monday by National Publicity Secretary Obiora Ifoh said Abure, who has been on a tour of United Kingdom and United States, to encourage members of the party and the Obidient Family, said the judgment by the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal is expected to come on or before 16th of September, 2023.
The statement noted that while addressing the Obidient Nigerian community in the Washington DC in the United States, Abure said, “Following Peter Obi’s participation in the 2023 general election, we changed the political narratives in Nigeria. We gave them a run for their money. They have murdered sleep and they will sleep no more. They have stolen what is not for them and they will not sleep until we recover it all.
“We are expecting judgment between now and 16th of September. And I am very sure Peter Obi will become President.
“Without sounding immodest, since they took over, things are now worse. The only party and the only candidate that has solutions to the challenges of the country is Labour Party and Peter Obi. And so we still believe that things will change in Nigeria. I want to say that we should not lose hope, we should not be discouraged. The hope is still alive and I am confident that Peter Obi will be president.”
