JUST IN: Apapa faction speaks on ‘blocking’ Peter Obi’s petition as Labour Party crisis deepens

The Lamidi Apapa-led faction of the Labour Party has dismissed the claim that it approached the Election Tribunal asking for withdrawal of cases, including the petition brought against the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) by Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that the Apapa faction said the allegation was a ploy by the Julius Abure faction to gain cheap public sympathy.
