The National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Iyiola Omisore has dismissed as \u2018wishful thinking\u2019 the suggestion by the Labour Party (LP) that a rerun of the 2023 presidential election might occur.<\/p>\n
The National Chairman of LP, Julius Abure, had previously cautioned party members to be on high alert due to information suggesting that the APC was planning for a potential rerun of the 2023 presidential election.<\/p>\n
However, on Tuesday, while appearing on a program named \u2018Politics Today\u2019 on Channels TV, Omisore shrugged off the LP\u2019s claim.<\/p>\n
He said, \u201cThere\u2019s a way Labour Party deceives their followership. They use the false court of instance.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe person that came third said they are going for rerun. How does he know that the court will give a rerun? So the Labour Party is now judging the tribunal? They are jokers.<\/p>\n
\u201cMost politicians are incurable optimists. Even from ground zero, they want to make 100 per cent.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, these are just wishful thoughts from the Labour Party. As far as I am concerned, they are jokers. They are nothing to worry about.\u201d<\/p>\n
When asked if the APC is prepared for a rerun, the APC official said, \u201cThere can\u2019t be any rerun for God\u2019s sake because it was a clear win.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Labour Party defeating Bola Tinubu in Lagos is the beauty of democracy and it shows the sanctity of that election. It shows the neutrality of the party, and it shows the evidential reason APC won across the board.\u201d<\/p>\n
Speaking on allegations of crisis within the party, Omisore said, \u201cWe are not aware of any internal wrangling within the APC. It is the imagination of people.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have moved far from that; the issue of Senator Abdullahi Adamu supporting somebody is an old issue. They are just trying to play the old game. Basically everybody is working together as one.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
