Supreme Court next – Aisha Yesufu reveals when Obi will make campaign account public

One of the signatories to the Obi/Baba-Ahmed Campaign Organization in the February 25 election, Aisha Yesufu, has revealed that the statement of account for the campaign would be made public after the petition by the Labour Party candidate, Peter Obi is concluded at the Supreme Court.

Newspot recalls that the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal on Wednesday struck out the petition filed by Obi and his counterpart in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, and their parties, saying it had no merit.

The court unanimously upheld the election of President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Verdict on the petitions were delivered by the Chairman of the tribunal, Justice Haruna Tsammani, alongside four other members of the panel.

The Labour Party had since rejected the tribunal judgement and vowed to appeal the ruling at the apex court.

Speaking on the judgement, Aisha Yesufu in a post on her verified X account, said the Obi/Baba-Ahmed Campaign is not done with the February election.

According to her, the statement of account for the campaign can only be made known after the party is done with the election.

She wrote, “Next is Supreme Court ruling and then election would be duly rounded up and the statement of account of Obi/Baba-Ahmed Campaign Account can be made public by the Presidential candidate! There are many who have concluded their election, Obi/Baba-Ahmed Campaign hasn’t.

“This is my second time of being one of the signatories of a campaign account. I was one in 2018/2019. As soon as we withdrew from the campaign we made account public because we were done. This time also we have to be done for the account to be made public”.
