The Labour Party (LP) has strongly refuted the allegation that its supporters made threats against judges presiding over the petition filed by its candidate, Peter Obi, regarding the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) declaration of Bola Tinubu as the winner of the February 25 presidential election.

In a statement released by the National Publicity Secretary, Obiora Ifoh, the LP accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of concocting the story to tarnish its image and disrupt the political landscape.
The party expressed its belief that a photograph circulating, which allegedly shows a PEPC judge and children, is an attempt to divert attention from the open intimidating remarks made by APC’s legal representatives toward the PEPC justices.
These remarks conveyed the notion that there would be chaos if the PEPC ruled against the APC’s client.
The LP recalled that the legal team representing Bola Tinubu had warned of potential anarchy if his election was nullified and he was removed from the presidency, which the party considers a part of the larger strategy.
The LP reiterated its confidence in the legal process, stating that it presented its case comprehensively and within the confines of the law.
The party emphasized that it did not resort to threats in order to ensure justice, as it believes in the sanctity of the judicial system.
The statement highlighted the LP’s suspicion that the ruling party is trying to create confusion and label the Labour Party falsely. It asserted that the public should dismiss these unfounded accusations and recognize the desperation of the ruling party to retain power at any cost.
The LP reaffirmed its trust in the legal system’s ability to deliver justice based on constitutional and legal principles, and not through manipulation or deceitful acts by the ruling party.
