I am one of the lawyers of @NgLabour and after seeing the APC manipulated “summary” of our very intense petition filed yesterday at the court of Appeal, I decided to show the grounds filed here.

The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, has condemned the attack on supporters of his party in Lagos State on saturday.
It was reported that Suspected hoodlums attacked LP's supporters said to be on their way to the venue of the party’s presidential campaign rally.
Reacting to the development, Obi via his verified Instagram handle on Saturday, condemned the attack, saying that such political opposition attacks will not be tolerated.
If present events are anything to go by (they most certainly are), i fear that another govt by the APC in 2023 will be a complete disaster for ordinary Nigerians! Apart from incompetence, their party machinery is oiled by arrogant men & women who're masters at Junk Journalism &
gagging the PRESS/TRUTH.
By then, every single piece of news & activities of govt will be steeped in cold propaganda, delivered with arrogance, charisma and self-entitlement.
I know some of these guys. Their PR games are topnotch. Their only problem now is that their product

FOUR REASONS I WANT KENNETH OKONKWO TO BE ONE OF THE SPOKEPERSONS OF @PeterObi and @NgLabour
1. He has consistently detected the pitfalls journalists build when asking questions. You may not understand how important this is if you're not used to logic and argument.

#PeterObi
Presenters do build "Strawman" opinions, hasty generalisation, false dilemma and other fallacies to trap unaware speakers into accepting what actually is not right.
Take for example if I ask you, "What do you have to say to the toxic behaviours of OBIdients?"
#PeterObi2023
Take for example if I ask you, "What do you have to say to the toxic behaviours of OBIdients?"
#PeterObi2023
If you're not careful you will fall the main trap which is accepting that all/only OBIdients are toxic. It's not starting with "why, how", it is first in showing that that assertion is not correct. No other person have done this perfectly like Barr Kenneth Okonkwo @realkenokonkwo

2. Obi is interested in the history of Ile-Ife getting as many attention as the West's. With his presidency, Ile-Ife is set to become a tourist centre of attraction. He mentioned how as a young undergraduate, he came visiting OAU to behold the then incomparable beauty.
3. As usual, Obi analyzed how the government could have solved the ASUU strike by demonstrating his vast knowledge of the situation. This man means we'll for this nation, I tell you most sincerely.

1) I was at INEC office, Ifo LGA Ogun State, yesterday to assist some people who were doing their PVC transfer. We were directed to use a nearby cafe which has a direct access to INEC portal. On getting to the very crowded cafe, I was amazed to see people of different adult ages,
2) including the very old & mostly Yorubas, all of them discussing the Obiwave & how Peter Obi is the only reason they are updating their PVCs & voting in this coming election. I was moved to tears & didn't know that a Baba amongst them noticed & asked me where I was coming from.
3) So I told him from Isolo, Lagos & helping out whoever wanted to vote for Obi get their PVC. Baba asked me to give him a hug, I hugged & hugged & got tired of hugging people I have never met in my life. They all started to pray for me, for Peter Obi & for Nigeria. The tears

Let me further declare my bias here; I am an Igbo man from Anambra State.
A Benin friend told me last week that I support Peter Obi because he's Igbo and from Anambra State! I was actually speechless at his prejudice!

‘I never said investment in SABMiller now worth $100m’ — Obi blames ‘one youth’ for misinformation | TheCable thecable.ng/i-never-said-i…
Obi said this in a letter to @CCSoludo, governor of Anambra state, on Thursday, through his media aide, Valentine Obienyem.
The former Anambra governor blamed “one of the youths, not under our control, but eager to throw in anything that glorified their hero — Obi”.

In a 2018 interview, Obi had said he invested $20 million in International Breweries on behalf of Anambra state as a governor.
Obi’s claim was in response to questions on economic development, Anambra politics and his presidential ambition.

Its looking like there will be a run off in next year's Presidential election. #kwakwansiyya spread in the north shouldn't be underrated, he will likely get enough votes to impact the votes esp. for #Atiku and #BAT2023 in the north and.....
#Atiku is at a disadvantage here since the north is his stronghold. #Kwankwaso will win the NW and likely 25% in all states of NE. SW...BAT's stronghold n will get d most votes in all SW states, but will dat be enough? given that he must have 25% of votes from 24 states.

from Dr Goodluck Jonathan and was billed to attend a black tie event at the Dallas Marriot.
Curiously, he flew into Dallas airport with one small carry on luggage which he insisted on wheeling around himself, and on getting to our residence requested to freshen up.

He opened his carry on, filled with files and paperwork and a few toiletries and an extra shirt, when the Ikemba and I asked if he was expecting another item of luggage, and he said no. Then, what will you be wearing to the event tonight?’, we inquired.
It was at that point

while #peterObi is busy understudying and comparing countries so that WHEN he becomes president he will replicate it, i was busy understudying #peterobi's life and how he is able to stay in Nigerian politics stainless, focused and progressive and i got these results...
I graduated top of my class by the way and i thaught i have arrived but after i researched about @peterobi's Almamata and his achievements in private/public service, i realised how myopic i have been over the years.
Mr peter Obi should have naturally settled for being a petty trader in Onisha after graduating from UNN as the status quo demands but he went ahead to attend all the famous business schools and universities in the world;
I don't think anyone has labelled #PeterObi a messiah.
No one has dressed him in the messianic gab of "the new sherriff in town, whose presence alone was claimed to have caused power to improve" ala Buhari in 2015.

It is false equivalance to compare the #PeterObi movement of today with the "Sai baba" chants of 2014/2015.
For one, the Buhari myth was just that - a myth - with zero evidence to show any tangible success in the past about Buhari.
In other words, nothing to verify.

According to the highlighted text in the bottom part of this screenshot, this trade dispute started in 2000, under the Mbadinuju administration.
Like I've always said here, & like every Anambrarian would confirm, Mbadinuju bastardised Anambra infrastructure & resources.

Now, if you refer to the screenshot above again 👆🏿, you'd see that this joint corporation had become moribund way before Obi became governor.
What does this mean? The workers were no
