Tension ahead of presidential tribunal judgment as Obidients begin massive mobilization for a peaceful demonstration
Nigeria’s political atmosphere is currently enveloped in a state of uncertainty, anxiety, and tension as the nation awaits the imminent judgment of the five Justices who presided over the petitions filed by Alhaji Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Mr. Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) at the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT). Their petitions challenge the victory of President Bola Tinubu in the February 25 presidential election.
The waiting game, which has been ongoing since the conclusion of arguments from all parties at the tribunal, is causing waves of anticipation among Nigerians both at home and abroad.
This dynamic scenario has oscillated between moments of heightened expectations and periods of deflation, resulting in an atmosphere where citizens are becoming increasingly restless due to the extended wait.
This collective sentiment has given rise to a notion that behind-the-scenes machinations might be influencing the impending ruling. As a response, a gentle revolution seems to be brewing, aimed at keeping the justices accountable and ensuring an unbiased decision.
Notably, hundreds of T-shirts and bags have been produced and are circulating widely. These items bear a clear message: “Presidential Election Tribunal: All eyes on the judiciary; judiciary save our democracy.” This movement signifies the populace’s determination for an impartial judicial process.
Reports say a Peter Obi political support group, Peter Obi Grassroots Mobilization, in a tweet on Wednesday, said the Obidients are mobilizing for a peaceful One Million Man March which will focus on the Judiciary and the upholding of justice during the ongoing presidential election petition tribunal judgment.
