Peter Obi is comedian 🙄

The presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, has filed his petition challenging the victory of Bola Tinubu as Nigeria’s president-elect in the 25 February election.

Mr Obi, who came third in the election, filed his petition at the Presidential Election Petition Court in Abuja, at about midnight on Tuesday.

The Labour Party candidate sought five prayers in his petition.

Principal among his prayers is his call on the court to cancel the 25 February presidential election and order a fresh poll.

The petition, jointly filed by Mr Obi and the Labour Party as co-petitioners, joined the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mr Tinubu, Shettima Kashim (vice president-elect), and the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the respondents.

Tuesday, being the 21st day since the declaration of the results of the election on 1 March, is the last day he as well as any other aggrieved candidates and political parties have to file their petition in court.

INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, who announced the final results in the early hours of 1 March in Abuja, said Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) PDP came second in the election
Atiku polled a total of 6,984,520 votes in the election.

Mr Obi of the Labour Party came third in the election with a total of 6,101,533 votes, while Rabiu Kwankwaso of the NNPP came fourth with 1,496,687 votes.

Grounds of the petition
Setting out the grounds for the petition, Mr Obi’s lead lawyer, Livy Uzoukwu, said Mr Tinubu “at the time of the (presidential) election was not qualified to contest the election.”

Mr Uzoukwu, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), argued that the president-elect “was not duly elected by majority of the lawful votes cast at the time of the election.”
The senior lawyer led Atiku’s legal team when the former vice president unsuccessfully challenged the victory of President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019.

Prayers
Among his five prayers, Mr Obi urged the Presidential Election Petition Court to “determine that at the time of the presidential election held on 25 February, 2023,” Messrs Tinubu and Shettima “were not qualified to contest the election. ”

He prayed the tribunal “to determine that all the votes recorded for” Mr Tinubu “in the election are wasted votes, owing to the non-qualification” of the president-elect and Mr Shettima.

“That it be determined that the 2nd Respondent (Mr Tinubu) having failed to score one-quarter of the votes cast at the Presidential Election in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, was not entitled to be declared and returned as the winner of the presidential election held on 25 February, 2023.”
Mr Obi prayed the tribunal to make “an order cancelling the election and compelling the 1st respondent (INEC) to conduct a fresh election at which the 2nd Respondent (Tinubu), 3rd respondent (Shettima) and 4th respondent (APC) shall not participate.”

President-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu yesterday inaugurated a team of 49 Senior Advocates of Nigeria (SANs) to defend his election at the February 25, 2023 presidential election before the Court of Appeal sitting as the presidential election tribunal.

Speaking at the inaugural meeting held at the Ikoyi office of his lead counsel, Chief Wole Olanipekun (SAN), Tinubu told the 50-member team that the task before them is not just about defending his election, noting that it is a task that has the defence of democracy as its major prime.

The president-elect referred to the results of the presidential election, particularly those of Lagos and Katsina, his home state and that of President Muhammadu Buhari, saying the defeat suffered by the All Progressives Congress (APC) were unthinkable outcomes that were only possible due to the free and fair nature of the election.

Tinubu noted his complete trust in the abilities of members of his legal team, just as he said over the years he had worked with most of them in the course of his own defence of democracy and democratic institutions.

He expressed complete faith in the ability of members of the team to bring their wealth of knowledge, experience and diligence to bear in the defence of popular wishes of the

Tinubu noted his complete trust in the abilities of members of his legal team, just as he said over the years he had worked with most of them in the course of his own defence of democracy and democratic institutions.

He expressed complete faith in the ability of members of the team to bring their wealth of knowledge, experience and diligence to bear in the defence of popular wishes of the Nigerian people.

He thanked them for their patriotism, altruism and selflessness, stating that by volunteering to accept his instruction, they not only represented him, but the Nigerian people who clearly stated their choice.

Tinubu commended the assemblage of senior counsel for their comity, camaraderie, collegiality, partnership and solidarity with the masses.

Responding, the lead counsel, Olanipekun accepted the charge by the president-elect, noting that given the calibre of counsel gathered, it was not a question of leadership, but one of team work.

He implored all members of the team to be aware that the task before them is a solemn and sober one, which they must execute by bringing every inch of their expertise to bear.

On the enormity of the task, he insisted that as it has to do with the instrumentality of the law, the team is ready to extract, extricate and excavate any legal authority, no matter where they may be hidden in the world, in order to carry out Tinubu’s instructions.

Present at the meeting were Prince Lateef Fagbemi (SAN), Mallam Yusuf Ali (SAN), Tayo Oyetibo (SAN), Chief Niyi Akintola (SAN), Chukwuma Ekomaru (SAN), Dr. Hassan Liman (SAN), Professor Dakas Dakas (SAN) and Anthony Malik (SAN).

Also, in attendance at the meeting were Babatunde Ogala (SAN), the All Progressives Congress’ legal adviser, Ahmad El-Marzuq, Life Bencher, and Festus Keyamo (SAN).

In their contributions, they assured counsel of the party’s support whenever required, and insisted on the sanctity of the president-elect’s mandate.

Other members of the Tinubu’s legal team who are all SANs are Chief Akin Olujimi, Emmanuel Ukala, Chief Afolabi Fashanu, Prof. Konyinsola Ajayi, Chief Niyi Akintola, Prof. Taiwo Osipitan, Tani Molajo, Tayo Oyetibo, Mike Igbokwe, Bayo Adelodun, Oladele Adesina, Oladipo Okpeseyi, Lawal Pedro, Chukwuma Ekomaru, Olasupo Shasore, Abiodun Owonikoko, Dr. Hassan Liman, Adesegun Ajibola, Solomon Umoh, Tunde Busari Prof. Dakas Dakas, Ogwu James Onoja, Prof. J.

Today, I was at the Ikeja Mega Terminal of the Red Line to inspect the level of work that has been put into the construction.

The terminal serves as a multimodal point of exchange, bridging the gap between the Red Line and BRT buses on the Ikeja, Oshodi-Abule Egba axis.

When in full operation, this station will process about one million passengers per day.

This project is important to me as it ties directly into our transportation plan and is instrumental into bringing Lagos into the forward-thinking city that we have envisioned for it to be.
We are continously at work to make Lagos better and I give you my word, no matter the challenges that continually beset us, we will face them squarely as we continue to work hard to make life easier for our residents.

Believeintruth:
You are frustrated and stop deceiving yourself

frustrated 😠 just like your father, stop quoting son

Believeintruth:
See this todler forming that he is old. Oga go and sit down you see a small boy even your reasoning shows it. Idiota

thanks kiddo am so sure that me and your father are not mates!🙄

Believeintruth:
Dude you don't have sense. See take my advice tell your paymasters to concentrate on gathering theor defence because the evidence against APC is overwhelming and this puts the Judiciary in a tight corner your bribes no go work oooo. Also know this that we all know the party that controls the state apparatus in Nigeria. And it is only that person who controls the state apparatus that can rig. LP doesn't have that kind of control. You guys would end up invalidating the little votes you had in the south east. You people are mot smart at all.

its your father that don't have sense, I'm old enough to to be your father stupid kid🙄

It can only happened in the East 🙄


Obidients are criminals

Rhodes Vivour is an Ipob🙄

PrinceOfLagos:
Tinubu is not the President-Elect, Shetima is .

Oponu?

God bless Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The President elect😀😀

Mindlog:
"Obasanjo and company know what he's capable of doing and know that if he becomes president they are in trouble".....In trouble over what?. 🙄

What height is Tinubu aspiring for, that Obasanjo has not already achieved?

over 16 billion dollars power money that him and Atiku stole🤔

Some people go get hypertension oooo🙄

Jagaban 🙄

peepydelano:
This and more are the reasons i hate this Obi with passion, such an opportunist who wants to reap where he did not sow. He keeps jumping from one party to the other, parties that were built by others ooo he’ll just jump in and want to lead, such a greedy opportunistic thief that scammed anambara for eight years. Obi shall never be Nigeria president, impossible.

🙄🙄🙄🙄

Which can mumu reply be this🙄

See uppercut 🙄🙄

ecolime:
KKK block votes has vanished.

KANO: Kano's vote will be balkanized. The 4 candidates might roughly get about 25% each. No block vote for anyone there.

One must really hate himself to vote APC. This is a party of blood suckers that delight in the suffering of the people.

KADUNA: The people of Southern Kaduna have seriously been dealt with by APC and the wicked midget. Majority of them are voting Labour Party. Many in Kaduna North are voting likewise with the rest going with Atiku.

KATSINA: Atiku is taking this state, followed by APC, NNPP & a few for Labour.

Atiku has a little edge in the North. Overall, everything tilts in favour of Obi. He has the entire South and most parts of Middle belt in the kitty and will also have a good showing in the North.

He's almost unstoppable.

enter South in kitty? 🙄
