The Abia PDP Vice Chairman/Acting State Publicity Secretary, Hon. Elder Abraham Amah recently revealed this to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, it is funny that Alex Otti and Labour Party have resorted to panic just as it is clear that the weight of evidence against them is highly overwhelming.
He added that the party will only advice both politicians to allow justice to take a natural course and stop using intimidation and unnecessary tactics to force what is not.
His words, “Mr. Lateef Fagbemi before his nomination and eventual designation as Nigeriaβs Chief Law Officer was the lead counsel to Alex Otti and the Labour Party in the petition brought against them by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and its candidate Sir Okey Ahiwe, challenging the declaration of Alex Otti of the Labour Party as the winner in the Abia 2023 Governorship election.”
It is laughable that Alex Otti and Labour Party took to this panic measure because it has become obvious to them that the weight of evidence against them is highly overwhelming and as they have always done since the Tribunal started sitting, employed another needless hardball tactic to truncate the course of justice through technicalities, intimidation and interminable obstructive motions to delay the pronouncement of justice.”
In case Lateef Fagbemi has forgotten, the role of an attorney general and justice minister is to give impartial legal advice to the government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and not to take private briefs from individuals or continue to represent private citizens once he has accepted to serve as the countryβs chief law officer.
The Abia PDP is mindful of the fact that some prominent lawyers have already condemned his actions and also advised him to recuse himself from the case and face his duties as the Attorney General and Minister of Justice.
And to Alex Otti and the Labour Party, Abia PDP advises them to allow justice to take a natural course and stop using intimidation and unnecessary tactics to torpedo the delivery of justice in the State because as it is now, all eyes are on the judiciary in Abia State.”
