JUST IN: Babachir Lawal Reacts to APC Statement Countering His Claim, Insists Obi Won 2023 Election

Former Secretary to the Government of the Federation , Babachir David Lawal, has termed the reaction by the All Progressives Congress to his statement claiming that Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, won the last presidential election as “POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Lawal claimed that some key allies of President Bola Tinubu’s administration have reached out to him following his statement on Tuesday.

He, however, said he would not be intimidated by the party’s threats and that he would continue to speak out against what he sees as its wrongdoings.I suspect he was assigned this role because it is in the nature of sycophants and people consigned to second class status to be assigned roles that their masters are wary of taking on.

“When we founded APC way back in 2013/2014, we envisaged it will be a national party that will carry along all the different socio-political and religious tendencies of the nation. In those days, we were careful not to side-line any of the religions or tribes of the country in the composition of the membership and leadership of the party. We wanted a party that will embrace all Nigerians.

“And talking of electoral value, both the National Chairman and the National Secretary just dramatically lost in the May election. I suspect Mallam Felix didn’t do well in his own constituency either. It is based on these considerations that I pity a Christian who finds himself in the position of a spokesperson of an Islamic party. Mark my words, all critical decisions will be taken behind his back during the afternoon prayers sessions which he will be unable to attend.
