Popular comedian Seyi Law, a diehard supporter of President Tinubu, couldn’t resist making fun of the opposition supporters on social media following the tribunal’s verdict.
The Presidential Election Petition Tribunal confirmed President Bola Tinubu’s victory in the 2023 presidential election while dismissing the petitions from Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar, representing the Labour Party (LP) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
He playfully wondered if the opposition had already started shedding tears or were still holding out hope for a possible rerun.
