APC tackles Obi over ‘false narrative’ on Nigeria’s election

The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign council on Friday accused the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, of planning to steal the mandate of President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, through the back door.

Obi and his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) counterpart, Atiku Abubakar, had rejected the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declaration of Tinubu as the winner of the election and challenged the process in court.

In a statement issued in Abuja, the council’s Director of Media and Publicity, Bayo Onanuga, accused the Labour Party candidate of making inflammatory remarks on the election.
