When the issue of Chief Olanipekun not competent to appear before on the basis of the letter which emanated from his Chambers boasting that the principal had influence on the bench. On the basis of this issue alone, the Petitioner can ask Chief Olanipekun to recuse himself from the proceedings.

Electorate:

[b]For you to pass WAEC, you must pass 5 subjects, and English language.
For you to win Presidential Election, you must have 25% in 24 states, and FCT.
There's no parallel between your comparisons.
It would make sense if English was not really considered to be a subject in the same way FCT is not like the regular State of the federation.
English is a subject, just like every other subjects. Saying 5 credit passes in 5 subjects and English language would mean a pass in English language is required.
However, FCT doesn't have the same similarities with other states of the federation in terms of administration and other things. There's no state attached to the constitutional name of FCT, so it makes sense to say 25% in 2/3 of the 36 states and the FCT. Section 299 would go ahead to say the FCT should be treated as if it's a state of the federation in constitutional matters.

Nairaland has now become a court room. People that have never enter a courtroom before acting as supreme court judges. What exactly is the problem with you Nigerians?
Your politicians take public rsources to by properties abroad, send their children to best schools abroad, get best medical care abroad. You are left behind to suffer in a system they design to frustrate you. instead of discussing how to solve the challenge as victims of the corrupt system, you are here fighting over matter that your opinion wont influence the final outcome. You are all victims of the system.

Unarguably, Wole Olanipekun is one of the brightest SANs in Nigeria and one of the richest as well - thanks to his ability to win cases for the political class.

Well, it will be interesting to see how he will defend the sham election that threw victory in the laps of Druggie as well as prove Druggie's eligibility after working as the chief finance officer for Chicago drug cartels. cheesy
This man always represents the highest bidder after every major election in Nigeria.
He is very rich.
He had 4 children, all of them LAWYERS.

You don't even know what's up. This petition from PO has Tinubu on the ropes because if it is established that indeed he paid 460k USD on a plea bargain which means he was indicted actually, then based on Nigeria's law and the electoral act he is unfit and that count has disqualified him.

The second is against INEC, they contravened the law in theirr electoral act where it is stated that results must have been collated and transmitted before the winner is announced, but we have a case whereby the information was still uploaded on iRev when the winner was announced . This is INEC contradicting itself. now back to the server data which is virtual and hosted by AWS now INEC cannot even establish based on the logs that there was a system issues that enabled them go against their wish which was to initally download the results using the bvas.

Bros Tinubu is on the ropes for this one. Wale is even boxed in and what he will do which i anticipate is that he will petition the not to admit the video where INEC chairman himself stated that BVAS will be used to upload the election results, this alone is what PO's lawyers want him to do which is when they will not focus on Tinubu's eligibility to contest based on the drug history.


Tinubu had an out of court settlement in a civil case. He was never indicted and the case was DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE. It is a closed case that can never be reopened.

INEC can decide to transmit result anyhow they like. INEC guidelines recognize both manual and online transmission of results. The court will not nullify the election because some results were not immediately transmitted to IREV as a result of network problem. The non-transmission did not affect the outcome of the election in any way and the manual transmission is enough to complete the process.

Tinubu is not on any rope and Wole Olanipekun is actually drinking beer because this will be his easiest case so far.

The man must be rolling on the floor in his chamber right now. Laughing so hard at the med!ocre petition filed by Labour party.

If you know wole Olanipekun so well, you will know the court will be done within hours barring any ceremonial adjournment just to make the sitting look atleast a little bit solid.

Chief Olanipekun, SAN, OFR, CFR that made A!T of partisan Raymond Dopkes! ' crawled on the floor and begged for their life' claiming it was the 'dev!L's work' when Tinubu through Wole Olanipekun slammed a 150Billion naira lawsuit against them for defamation in 2016 on this same 'druglord propaganda'.

When was the last time you saw A!T, a pro-PDP media house ran any anti-Tinubu campaign on their station during this electioneering period? They were quiet all through the campaign period, unlike before; Olanipekun put them in their place.

I wont be surprise if after this case is done and dusted, Tinubu will also drag Labour party to court for CHARACTER ASSASINATION & DEFAMATION . ( Dem go slam 300billion lawsuit against Labour party, and you obidients will just wail and cry about it for nothing. And i hope you dont cry: 'government suppression & oppression' then.)

Ar!seTV too should be prepared, let the dust settle first. E go reach everybody, dem go learn by force.

Same Wole wey supreme court fined in his last outing in bayelsa after the governorship election? grin grin grin

Anything can happen.

Your comment is laughable...

Take a chill pill and research the members of the Labour Party legal team...

Most of the men in the team are dangerously efficient and your Wole Olanipekun and his team are already apprehensive

Jubril Samuel Okutepa, Livi Uzukwu and Onyechi Ikpeazu will strike the fear of fear into the heart of any lawyer no matter highly placed...

Re: Meet Wole Olanipekun; Tinubu's Lead Counsel At The Presidential Tribunal by mdgreen(m): 3:53pm On Mar 22, 2023
I Was going through twitter this morning when I saw Tinubu trending, all i was thinking about was international community and lawsuit have been resolved, only for me to see a new filled case in court against him. Let's analyse this case carefully without be biased. Firstly am a Nigeria before becoming any political party member, and forever Nigeria will remain even after am gone. Now the question is why did peter obi make a swift turnaround to file a new suit?
1. In a court of law the most radical case to attend to without much wasting of time is criminal case.
2. The configuration of bvas by inec make the initial case weak I.e evidence have be sweep under the carpet. Inec thinks that is a smart much, but no in the prayer presented in court, amazon cloud storage will also be look at, involving an international body. Usa and other, because , that is USA company.
Am not a lawyer but before we conclude let's look at it this way. An area boy of 5 years can not walk to an elderly man of 50years to slap him without a backup from the senior area boys. Let's pray this issue is solved peacefully and the right thing is done. Long life F.R.N

There's no parallel between your comparisons.
It would make sense if English was not really considered to be a subject in the same way FCT is not like the regular State of the federation.
English is a subject, just like every other subjects. Saying 5 credit passes in 5 subjects and English language would mean a pass in English language is required.
However, FCT doesn't have the same similarities with other states of the federation in terms of administration and other things. There's no state attached to the name FCT name, so it makes sense to say 25% in 2/3 of the 36 states and the FCT. Section 299 would go ahead to say the FCT should be treated as if it's a state of the federation in constitutional matters.

Going by your assertion, Since FCT is not a state which is rightfully so because it doesn't have a Governor neither does it have representatives in the Senate and House of Representative which makes it DISTINCT and DISTINGUISHED hence the stated 2/3 of all states AND fct.

The AND clearly represent an addition to the 2/3 require to win which the APC didn't meet up to. The APC didn't win the FCT (Mandatory English Language) which means they cannot be declared winner. Period.

There's no where in the constitution that states a candidate must win the FCT to be declared the winner, no?
Section 299 or is it 290 already instructs us to treat FCT as though it's a state in the federal in constitutional matters.
Sticking to allegations of rigging would have been the best best for Obi, banking on an ambiguous section of the constitution.
They'll use the ambiguity to knock your case out.
