The presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), ahead of the 2023 election, Omoyele Sowore, has said nobody can stop the proposed Peter Obi rally in Lagos State.
Newsonline reports that Sowore said the plan by presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu and the state governor, Sanwo-Olu to use court action against the peaceful rally would not work.
Recall that a suit challenging the proposed rally for the Labour candidate presidential candidate wa heard in a Federal High Court sitting in Ikoyi, Lagos.
The presiding Justice Emeka Osiagor adjourned the hearing to 23rd September for further hearing.
Speaking on the court action against what he described as the rights of citizens to peaceful assembly, Sowore wrote on his Twitter handle, NOBODY Can stop @peterob @UKLabour rally in Lagos. I guess these are Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu minions suing to stop Labour Party and Mr. Peter Obi from staging a rally in Lagos. These people have gone nuts, and must be disgraced out of Nigeria’s political space.”
He revealed that he is, “planning rallies on the same day across Nigeria and on October 20, 2022, to commemorate #EndSARS massacre perpetrated by Muhammadu Buhari and his APC cohorts in Lagos, so be prepared for your worst nightmare!”
Sowore added that the court action against the court will not dampen the desire of the citizens for a change of people-oriented government.
He added, “These acts will not delay their day of judgment. Well, your problems just got worse because we are PS: The position stated here is our long-held stance that nobody has a right to truncate the rights of our compatriots to freely assemble!”
