A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos State, Ambassador Abayomi Mumuni, has enjoined members of the party not to insult the Presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and Labour Party (LP) Mr. Peter Obi over the presidential tribunal verdict, just as he said time has come to heal the country.
The APC chieftain gave the advice on Saturday, while reacting to the tribunal verdict which dismissed the petitions of the PDP, LP and Allied Peoples Movement (APM), challenging the victory of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the ruling APC at the February 25, 2023 poll.
Mumuni, in a press statement issued by his media aide, Rasheed Abubakar, to Vanguard in Ibadan, described the verdict as a well-deserved victory for Nigerians who gave President Tinubu and his Vice Kashim Shettima, their mandates.
