He said the petition tabled before the DSS was due to the refusal of the duo to accept defeat at the just-concluded presidential polls.

Obi, who emerged third place at the presidential polls, claimed he was being rigged out and that it was an orchestrated plot by the ruling party while also noting the numerous violence and voter inducement activities that were perpetrated during the presidential polls.

Meanwhile, Tinubu and his cohorts have since told obi and his allies to proceed to court to seek redress if they are unsatisfied with the outcome of the 2023 presidential polls.

Kayamo said:

“It is only when it does not favour you – and that is what the Labour Party is doing now, and that is why I had to petition them to the DSS.
