Social activist, Aisha Yesufu, has reassured Labour Party supporters that the outcome of the presidential election will be contested in court.
The ardent OBIdient, as supporters of the LP presidential candidate, Peter Obi, are known, spoke in a viral video.
Recall that the Independent National Electoral Commission declared the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as the winner of the 2023 presidential election.
The announcement was greeted with mixed feelings by Labour Party supporters who are contesting the results of the poll.
Yesufu, in the viral video, said the victory of the LP was stolen.
She said this could be seen from the results from Lagos, where she said Tinubu, a former two-term Governor of the State, thought he owned it.
She said from the plan for the election, the Labour Party knew Lagos State was going to be the easiest to take.
And she offered reason for it.
Yesufu said: “We have a legal fight to get our mandate back.
