Adamu Garba, a former presidential candidate on the All Progressives Congress (APC) platform, has been chastised for attempting to spread a false narrative about Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi.
WITHIN NIGERIA reports that Peter Obi, the LP candidate for the 2023 presidential election, was in court for the presidential election petition tribunal’s official start this month.
The People Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidates Atiku Abubakar and Obi had filed a lawsuit in court to challenge the declaration of Bola Tinubu of the All Progressive Congress (APC) as the winner of the February 25th, 2023 presidential election.
In response to photos of Obi in the election tribunal at the Appeal Court in Abuja, Adamu claimed the former Anambra governor was ignored by an APC chieftain, Ade Omole, who was in court to hear his party’s case.
He shared the photo saying;
The man in Blue? That was Prince Ade Omole. He is in no mood of unprepared shenanigans of Peter Obi and his Obidunce gang. He is representing mood of all the BATist in the court.
In response to the post, Akin Olaoye, a supporter of the LP candidate, called out the former presidential candidate for spreading a false narrative about Obi.
He also shared a video of Obi walking past the APC chieftain without interaction.
He wrote:
‘@adamugarba and his APC minions have a talent at propaganda an pushing a false narrrative. See as PO walks past this individual and doesn’t make any attempt to interact, but next is a picture circulating the internet saying he tried initiating pleasantries. These people should.
