Federal Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo has reacted to the petition filed by Peter Obi, Labour Party’s Presidential candidate in the just concluded election.
It was reported yesterday that Peter Obi officially filed a suit at the election petition tribunal challenging the declaration of Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the president-elect, seeking the nullification of the declaration of Tinubu as the winner of the February 25 presidential election on the grounds of non-adherence to the constitution and the electoral act, among others.
However, Keyamo has expressed excitement about the issues raised in the election petitions. He also stated that all the deceit, lies, and disinformation about simple and clear issues would be busted in the court.
The SAN took to his official Twitter handle to express his excitement, saying: “I am excited about the issues raised in those Election Petitions. All the deceit & lies & disinformation & misinformation about otherwise very simple and clear issues are about to be busted by our Law Lords. Whoever continues to argue after that should relocate to another planet.
“Nigerians will finally see the huge difference b/w calm, dispassionate adjudication of issues & all the hoopla caused by garrulous spokespersons shaking & falling on stage, ignorant TV hosts turned debaters, misinformed documentaries, illiterate tweeps & some dancing Hijabi mamas.”
