Presidential Tribunal: I will exhaust the process before I can think otherwise – Peter Obi vows to head to supreme Court

Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the recent general elections, has expressed his disagreement with the verdict of the Presidential Election Petition Court announced on Wednesday.

Obi affirmed his commitment to pursuing all available legal avenues to address the issue. During a press conference held in Onitsha, Anambra State, on Thursday, he commended the panel for delivering the verdict within the designated timeframe while maintaining his dissent with the judgment.

“In my capacity as a presidential candidate and on behalf of the Labour Party, we will immediately challenge this judgement through the appellate process, as permitted by the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

“The PEPC is not the ultimate authority in this matter, the responsibility now rests with the Supreme Court, which I have confidence in. I urge Nigerians to maintain their focus, steadfastness, and commitment to peaceful processes. This matter has not yet reached its logical conclusion,” he said.

“I will exhaust the process before I can think otherwise. I respect the process. I’m a process person, and what we are going through is what will unite us. You can not use a wrong premise to make things,” he stated
