Quit acting ‘holier than thou’, allow your lawyers do their job - APC blasts Obi

Peter Obi Peter Obi

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has told Peter Obi, the candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in the presidential election, to let his lawyers do their work.

Recall that Obi who came distant third after the conduct of the elections, is currently challenging the outcome of the polls that saw Bola Ahmed Tinubu become winner, as declared by the Independent National Electoral Commission.

The National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Felix Morka, who was a guest on the Arise News Television on Wednesday, stated that Obi has been crossing the line with his accusations.

He however described the accusations by Obi as ridiculous and advised him to leave the work to his lawyers.

Morka stated: “Peter Obi is really crossing the line, the campaigns are over, he needs to relax and allow his lawyers handle his case at the tribunal, accusing the APC of attacking his personal life is ridiculous.

“Obi has been way too sanctimonious for someone who volunteered to venture into politics and run for the presidency.

“He did not win the elections, he came a distant third, and he has made a political capital of exploiting people’s vulnerabilities."
