Demands For A Meeting With The Lawyers Within 48 Hours For Briefing.

Lamidi Apapa has warned the lawyers representing the Labour Party at the ongoing Presidential Election Petition Tribunal that he is now in charge of the party following a court order on May 12, 2023.

He also orders the lawyers representing the Labour Party to meet him within 48 hours for briefing.

He said: “As of today, I am the Acting National Chairman of the party and anybody who parades himself, apart from myself, is acting illegally.

“I want to tell the whole world that comes next Friday, the real suit will start when the issue of forgery, conspiracy and so forth will commence. And from there, we will know if actually that offence has been committed or not.

“I want to use this opportunity again to tell the whole world that the tribunal that has been going on, I want to invite all the lawyers that are representing the Labour Party that they should come for briefing.

They should come and update me on what is happening in that tribunal within the next 48 hours because right now, I’m the person in the driver’s seat and I’m the person that is fully in charge.”
