Supporters of Nigeria’s President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, resident in the United States of America have moved swiftly to neutralise the impact of the Monday, April 3, scheduled protest at the iconic Lafayette Park opposite the US seat of power, the White House, by supporters of Labour Party (LP) Presidential Candidate, Mr. Peter Obi.

Obidients, as Obi’s supporters are called, are drumming up international rejection of the declaration of Tinubu, Candidate of Nigeria’s ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) as winner of the February 25 election by the Independent national Electoral Commission (INEC).

Information available to News Express indicates that Tinubu’s supporters have obtained approval to stage their own protest at the same venue the following day, Tuesday, April 4.

A notice of approval by the United States Department of the Interior NATIONAL PARK SERVICE tagged “Permit: NCA-NAMA-EVNT23-0889” showed that the approval was granted yesterday, March 31, 2023.

The document indicates that the protest is being organized by the APC USA, with one Adeleke Lamoriyv as the Person in Charge, and will be attended by 100 persons.
