Tribunal: Peter Obi Not Qualified To Contest 2023 Election - Adegboruwa (SAN) by Timiolutomi: 3:17pm On Mar 26, 2023
According to Section 77 (2&3) of the Electoral Act 2022

Peter Obi is not a member of the Labour party. As a result, he is not qualified to contest the February 25, 2023 presidential election on behalf of the party. Section 77 (2) says every political party must have/maintain a register of its members in soft and hard copy.

77(3) says each party SHALL MAKE THAT REGISTER AVAILABLE TO INEC NOT LATER THAN 30 DAYS BEFORE THE DATE FIXED FOR ITS PRIMARIES, CONGRESSES OR CONVENTION.

PDP screened its presidential candidates on April 29th, 2022. Peter Obi participated in the screening and was cleared to contest. He even displayed his provisional clearance on social media.

Peter Obi was a member of PDP meaning that his name could not have, simultaneously, been in the Labour party’s comprehensive register submitted to INEC.

The questions that then arise are:

Can a person who is not a valid member of a political party contest as its presidential candidate?

The Presidential Election tribunal will see interesting fireworks in the days ahead – Ebun-Olu Adegboruwa (SAN) in ‘PETER OBI IS NOT THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE OF LP’.

I observed this too and told the Zombidients. Obi joined Labour Party only two weeks before primary while the electoral act says his name should be submitted to INEC at least 30 days before the primaries.
Well, let the court decide sha.

This is not surprising. The Labour Party kicked out the original candidates that won their original party's nomination tickets. These tickets were eventually sold to the highest bidders like Peter Obi, Chinedu GRV, Atta Achiefo and several parasites that showed up later.

Labour party's Governorship ticket was being sold for 25,000,000 Naira immediately Peter Obi became their presidential candidate.

Labour Party has scammed many candidates only for them to win just one governorship seat, and that one (Otti) was even quick to throw the Party under the bus.

The 6 Senate and 34 reps seats they won sef, na defection go follow soon as they are too insignificant to effect any change in the National Assembly.
