The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi has told his Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, counterpart, Atiku Abubakar, that he won the 2023 election and he is in the Supreme Court to reclaim his mandate.
Obi said this in response to the appeal by Atiku that he should join him in the legal battle to retrieve his mandate from President Bola Tinubu at a press conference in Abuja on Thursday.
The former Vice President appealed while announcing his intention to challenge Tinubu on the alleged inclusion of forged credentials in the documents he submitted by the President to contest the 2023 presidential election at the Supreme Court.
However, Obi told Atiku that he was also trying to reclaim his ‘stolen mandate’ from Tinubu at the Supreme Court in a statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary of the Labour Party, Obiora Ifoh.
The statement indicated that the Labour Party candidate is currently in the “Supreme Court seeking to reclaim his stolen mandate and he is focused on that.”
