The factional leader of the Labour Party, Lamidi Apapa, on Friday, gave the legal counsels representing the presidential candidate of the party, Peter Obi, a deadline of 48 hours to brief him on the ongoing election petitions tribunal.

“Today’s sitting is not for judgment as Apapa’s group is peddling in their usual way of misinforming Nigerians but purely for the purpose of determining the jurisdiction of the court.

The suspended chairman stated this when he received a delegation of Civil Society Organisations and supporters of the party who paid him a solidarity visit at the National Secretariat in Abuja “Labour party is a democratic institution and you don’t use coup d’etat to grab leadership. You don’t use the back door to take over the leadership of the party. That is what Apapa and co tried to do. Though we understand them because they have been paid by their paymasters, if you look at the statement they made today, they are talking about the tribunal.”
