Controversial entertainer and activist, Charles Oputa, popularly know as Charly Boy has called on supporters of the Labour Party (LP), known as “Obidients,” to occupy all streets in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) ahead of today’s Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) verdict.

“The PEPT may not air the live broadcast of the final verdict on the 6th of September 2023,” he stated. “The former announcement could be a trick to prevent Nigerians from coming to the court on that day.”
