EKO HOT BLOG reports that A Coalition of Civil Society Organizations and Political Parties for Good Governance has described the press conference granted by the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, as ridiculous and childish.
Addressing newsmen in Abuja on Thursday, the convener of the group, Dr Lilian Ene Ogbole, said it is childish for Obi to question the identity of President Bola Tinubu rather than providing evidence to contradict President Tinubu’s submissions to INEC.”
She said Obi did not provide any proof to invalidate the President’s claim but that he attempted to create all manners of doubts around the certificate and personal information that the President submitted to INEC without a single proof of evidence to substantiate his claims.
Ogbole, therefore, urged Nigerians to ignore the former Governor of Anambra State for dragging the image of President Tinubu and Nigeria in the mud.
She said: “If Atiku’s press conference is aptly described as a face-saving gimmick, to capture power from the backdoor by fabricating and speculating lies that have been globally verified and completely buried forever, then Mr Obi’s belated press conference over the same issue, is at best childish, shameful and laughable.
“It is rather inexplicable and hard to comprehend what manner of desperation we are dealing with, particularly Peter Obi’s desperate attempt to create all manners of doubts around the documents and personal information the President submitted to INEC without a single proof of evidence to substantiate his claims’’. She noted.
