The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council (APC PCC) has said that the approach which the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate,Mr Peter Obi, took on perception of religion and ethnicity in Saturday’s election, February 25th, 2023, reveals that Obi will be tagged as the “most dangerous and divisive politician.” in Nigeria’s history.

“The majority of them who have subverted the will of the people and at the same time, criminally denied the people from voting, end up going to jail. That has been their fear. “All these antics and statements they are issuing is an attempt of a drowning man who has been found out based on the lies and propaganda they have been spreading. But we as democrats have proved that we are going to rescue Nigeria and put her on the right part while her oppressors would be put to shame.” they addressed.
