The entertainer and activist Charles Oputa, better known by his stage as Charly Boy, stated that he did not anticipate receiving justice from the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC), adding that he thinks that Nigerians are not truly sick of suffering and that the tribunal’s ruling is a disgrace.
Charly Boy, who announced this on his X (formerly Twitter) page on Wednesday in response to the ruling that confirmed President Bola Tinubu’s victory in the election on February 25, 2023, made fun of how lawyers were dozing off in the courtroom while his fellow frustrated Nigerians were nowhere to be found.
