Mr. Peter Obi of the Labour Party has urged Obidients to respect the sanctity of the Court premises and give its legal team the space and peaceful environment to carry out their duties as the party seeks redress for its stolen mandate.

In a series of tweets on Wednesday, Obi said the Court Premises is not and should not be turned into a rally ground. “I urge the Obidients to go about their businesses peacefully”.

“I am supposed to commence our whistle-stop campaign for our various Labour Party Governorship and State Assembly Candidates today. Initially, my trip was to take me to Nasarawa, Lagos, Enugu, Abia, Delta, Edo, Rivers, Plateau, Borno, etc”.

“As we pursue due process and defer to the rule of law, I urge all the Obidients in the various states to continue campaigning for our candidates, namely, Gbadebo Rhodes Vivour in Lagos, Chijoke Edeoga in Enugu, Patrick Dakum in Plateau, Alex Otti in Abia, Ken Pela in Delta, Ibrahim Mshelia in Borno, to name just a few.

“It is also imperative that Obidients vote for candidates with Competence, Character, Capacity, and Compassion. I remain committed and will give more attention to our mission of retrieving our mandate. A new Nigeria is possible!
