As INEC declares winner of the 2023 presidential election, one of the registered political parties in the country, the Action Alliance (AA) insists on going to court to seek nullification of the entire processes because of its exclusion from the whole exercise.
Speaking shortly after the declaration of the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as the President-elect, Omo-Aje informed Nigerians that there was no cause for celebration as he maintained his ground of heading to court to seek total nullification of the exercise.
Omo-Aje claims that his party has a good ground to pursue the case saying that there is no basis for excluding all his lawful candidates from the race.
“Since the court as an arbiter is there for the aggrieved, we are ready to approach it for justice”.
It could be recalled that the aggrieved AA Chairman had called on members of the party to boycott the presidential and National Assemblies polls of February 25, 2023 over alleged exclusion of the constitutionally recognised candidates of the party, adding that, “we have gone beyond the boycott as we have started preparations towards rigorous litigation for total nullification of the whole exercise since the authorities in charge of the election had refused to do the needful before embarking on the poll.”
Nonetheless, Omo-Aje called on all members of the party, their loyalists and teeming supporters across the country and beyond to remain calm and law-abiding,
assuring that, “at the end of the day, victory would be ascertained because of our belief and confidence in the Judiciary.”
