His adroit display of rare forensic advocacy skills led to the trail-blazing decision of the Supreme Court of Nigeria in the case of OBI v INEC (2007)11NWLR (Part 1046)565, which case effectively re-calibrated the election metric rule in the hitherto uniform quadrennial elections into the office of Governors of States in Nigeria. Consequently, a candidate who was wrongly kept out of office after an election he rightly won, would still enjoy un-interrupted his four-year tenure guaranteed under the extant Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria with effect from the date he took Oath of Office as the Governor of the State, barring such other circumstances as death and impeachment.

Looks exciting.

Tinubu can only win in court if the judges glaringly compromise the process

Forget it this country is corrupt. The system stinks

No be this one make Adedancer lose?

You shouldn't be unveiling this rare gems for those who despise true democracy to start thinking of a way to compromise him...

Lmaoo. So him na free mason? If he belongs to Ikpeazu lineage just know failure is looming again for Obidients. Man must wack!

I just hope the corrupt judge will not play the tune of the corrupt power gangs

Lol 😂

I always laugh at the deluded Obiidiots that cite case of Peter Obi winning in the court as their reason for saying he will win this case.

Little did they know that Asiwaju has done the same thing for multiple governors. Oyo, Ondo, Osun, Edo, and etc.

We will meet in court and ya’ll know why he’s called the Jagaban!

If obi likes let him hires all the SAN in Nigeria including all the judges in international criminal Court. Aso rock is no go area for OBI forever.

His track records speaks volume

Man no b God

We are waiting for their pleading, Let him come and meet a respected constitution lawyer Awolowo SAN in the court.

Onyechi from Onitsha is a foremost legal icon that got Peter Obi's mandate as governor in 2006.

This case will be a lot easier for him because there are a lot of evidences to restore the victory of Peter Obi.

On a side note, Onyechi and Peter Obi grew up in Onitsha, so they are quite close friends.

This man led the legal team that defeated Ngige and returned Peter Obi's mandate. He also led the team that returned Amaechi's mandate. He also led the team that won the case at Appeal Court for Alex Otti, the current LP Guber candidate for Abia. He lost at the Supreme Court because a filing error (regularization).

The only way APC will stand a chance against this man is if they hire Wole Olanipekun SAN.

LegendHero:


He look like a clown.

A clown who have executed so many wins in his career? A son of a former SAN, a freemason cult man, you think he would not be successful in his career. He is already successful, so allow him to this, think about your own life, what do you want to be remembered for when you exit !?! Questions we all need to ask ourselves, Obi is in our national history, Tinubu his also, same as Atiku, will you be remembered or just came to cheer People who don’t know you and abuse people who don’t know you either.
