JUST IN: Finally, My Presidential Mandate Is Arrived – Peter Obi
The Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has vowed to explore every legal option in ensuring he reclaims his mandate.
The former Anambra State governor, who, according to figures released by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), finished third in the presidential election, spoke during a Labour Party stakeholders’ meeting in Awka, the Anambra State capital.
Despite the third-place finish, Obi insisted he won the election and has since gone to court to contest the outcome of the presidential election.
However, tweeting about the meeting, Obi wrote: “Earlier, I interacted with the Anambra State Labour Party Stakeholders in Awka. The meeting was quite animated and constructive. Part of our discussions centred on the way forward for the party.
“I reassured them of my readiness to go all the way, explore every available legal option to ensure that we get our mandate back. I appreciated all their support so far, as I assured them of mine. PO,” added the former Anambra State governor, as he signed off with his ‘PO’ initials.
