Labour Party faction congratulate Tinubu on Supreme Court victory

The Lamidi Apapa faction of the Labour Party faction has congratulated President Bola Tinubu on his victory at the Supreme Court on Thursday.

Recall that the Julius Abure faction of the Labour Party rejected the apex court judgement.

However, Lamidi Apapa on Saturday felicitated with Tinubu while expressing readiness to work with him.

In a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Abayomi Arabambi, the party’s faction mocked Peter Obi for presenting the “worst election petition ever in Nigeria’s history.”

The statement read in part;

“President Bola Tinubu’s (GCFR) victory at the Supreme Court on Thursday 26th October was not a fluke as he deployed all that was required to win an election, a two-time Governor of Lagos State, the commercial capital of Nigeria, is a man of many means that remain very focused on his long term ambition.

“The President knew what he wanted because when political shenanigans were on the prowl when all hope seemed impossible, he remained unperturbed but rather spread the Emilokan political virus that went across the nation upon which he affirmatively claimed victory in the Apex Court.

“Let us still believe in the democratic government, no matter what selfish politicians and cohorts hid in their stocks against the growth of democracy.

“The beauty of democracy is that election divides all democratic citizens, the democrats, and the entire populace into losers and winners

“While we in the LP appeal to the losers, especially the PDP presidential candidate, to toe the path of patriotism as democrats, we urge the winners to be more magnanimous in victory, since the government is for us all.
