He made the call while bemoaning the fact that he was unable to travel across the country to campaign for the party’s candidates.
Obi wrote the following in a series of tweets: “I am supposed to commence our whistle-stop campaign for our various Labour Party Governorship and State Assembly Candidates today.” In the beginning, the plan was for me to travel to Nasarawa, Lagos, Enugu, Abia, Delta, Edo, Rivers, Plateau, Borno, and other places like that.
“However, following INEC’s refusal to permit our party to inspect the materials (including BVAS) from the presidential elections that took place on the 25th of February, I will personally be heading to the Court today with our lawyers.
