Nigerian singer Charles Oputa, aka Charly Boy, has cautioned that the supporters of the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi, will not accept a rerun of the election.

Charly Boy, who is known for supporting Obi heavily, made this known in a tweet on Sunday, August 20, 2023.

According to him, the court has given judgment to favour other politicians without ordering a rerun in the past, so Obi’s case will not be different.

He wrote: "If they, the judiciary, did it for ROTIMI AMAECHI of Rivers State and they also did even greater wonders for HOPE UZODINMMA of Imo state;

"Surely, they can do even greater for PETER OBI. What is good for the goose is good …#NoToRerun"

He shared the tweet as millions of Nigerians await the final verdict of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT).

President Bola Tinubu Tinubu polled a total of 8,794,726 votes to defeat Atiku and Peter Obi of the Labour Party.

The PDP candidate polled 6,984,520 votes to come second, while Obi scored 6,101,533 votes.

However, both Atiku and Obi said they won the election and are challenging Tinubu's victory in court.
