A non-governmental organisation, Face Of Waziri-Nigeria (FOWN), has threatened to besiege the corridors of power with civil disobedience, if an alleged directive by President Bola Tinubu to witch-hunt certain justices of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) and lawyers of his opponents takes effect.
In a statement, the group’s Director-General, Comrade Bukky Adeniyi, alleged: “Agents of the President have been given specific instruction to go after the tribunal’s judges and lawyers of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, and that of the Labour Party, Mr. Peter Obi, in anticipation that the odds may go against the ruling party in the case before the tribunal.
“It is pertinent to state that FOWN is quite on tab with the situation at hand and will not rest on our oars to keep Nigerians updated.”
If justice is not served, Nigerians will be worse off, thereafter. We shall not hesitate to take action, if any attempt is made on the justices and lawyers of Atiku and Obi.”
FOWN added that whatever is regarded as sin, committed by the said justices in times past, Nigerians have forgiven them for the sake of the important presidential election matter.
