The All Progressive Congress (APC) has labelled Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the 2023 elections, as a “serial complainer.”
Felix Morka, the APC spokesperson said this in an interview with Arise Television on Tuesday and monitored by News About Nigeria correspondent.
However, it could be understood that the APC spokesperson was reacting to Obi’s remark on the outcome of the Edo governorship election.
Recall that on Monday, the former governor of Anambra condemned the outcome of the September 21 Edo governorship election.
He had described the election result as a “blatant example of state capture”.
He also stated that it fell short of Nigeria’s democratic ideals and values.
But, speaking during the show on Tuesday, Morka said Obi will never accept the results of any election not in his favour or his candidates.
The APC spokesperson further said Obi’s opinion in the Edo gubernatorial election was irrelevant.
“Peter Obi is a serial complainer who will not accept the result of any election that is not in his favour or candidates that he supports,” Morka said.
“Since the 2023 election, Obi has been in consistent denial of that election. He has a new pet project which is to deny the Edo State election.
“Whatever he thinks of the Edo election is completely irrelevant.
“I think Olumide Akpata and Asue Ighodalo have a legitimate interest in that election and if they are not satisfied, they should do what they must do which is to head to court and prove the allegations that they are handling around now. They are spreading unsubstantiated allegations.
“I have not listened to any of them finishing any evidence of the high-sounding allegations that they make. When you get to court, it’s not about the headlines; you must break it down to realistic evidence to support your argument of winning the elections.”
