Barrister Julius Abure, National Chairman of the Labour Party, LP, has warned members to be on the lookout, alleging that the All Progressives Congress, APC-led government is planning a repeat.
Abure warned his party members that if their devious strategy succeeds, they will further embarrass the APC and its administration in the polls.
He stated the comment was based on information he had at the time, demonstrating that the APC was aware that the wind was highly skewed against it.

The Chairman, on the other hand, advised “the members of the party to be on the alert and get ready to further humiliate APC and its government in the polls if their sinister plot materializes.”
“Rumours have it that those in government are already planning for rerun and this is one of the support we will be canvasing from you.
“We should also be getting prepared because since all those in government are already preparing for rerun we too should not be taken unawares.
“So we will be needing your engagement and support on this aspect if per adventure it happens today, that the election is nullified, which is not what we are asking for, because we are asking for outright declaration of Peter Obi as the President of Nigeria,” Abure said.

The Chairman stated that the party is confident that it will win the 2023 general election based on the evidence available to it, and that the LP is not anticipating anything less than the proclamation of its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Abure added that, “supposing it didn’t happen as the government is believed to be planning for a rerun, it will not also be out of place for us to be preparing for a rerun election.”
He also said that the party had put all of its evidence before the court and hoped that the tribunal would act in its favour.
