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 solid.

Chief Olanipekun, SAN, OFR, CFR that made A!T of partisan Raymond Dopkes! ' crawled on the floor and begged for their life' when Tinubu through Wole Olanipekun slammed a 150Billion naira lawsuit against them for defamation in 2016. 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.

And so ?
1) Does it mean that he has never lost a case before ?
2) How do u know that he is the best?
3) And if so how do u arrive at ur answer
4) how do you know already that he will win this one since he has lost a case before ?


The problem with the people in this forum (both LP, PDP and APC supporters) is that they all talk and analyze things with the perspective of a lay man on the street.

Having looked at the petition and prayer by the PO lawyers, i am not a constitutional lawyer but one thing is certain the allegations in that petition and prayer is a very strong one.

I have sat down and try to make sense why PO's lawyers will present such a petition and prayer and the only that comes to my mind is are u a lawyer ? my answer is NO, do u knw better than the team of lawyers ? the answer is NO, have u seen the evidence to knw why they arrive at that decisions ? My answer to my self is NO.

There and then i concluded that for one to go into battle like this magnitude, one they must have done their homework well, gather enough evidence, look at what the constitution say about their petitions and prayers and finally, look at past judgements on said matter and know how to go about such a case.

Hence, what am saying exactly is that, those number of lawyers can't just come with such a huge allegations, petitions and prayers without doing their homework well.

So let's not start analzing if the petitions and prayers will not stand in court because they must have debated on some prayers before deciding to come up with this prayers.

My candid opinion, pls reply my questions and answer the points i raised without any form of insult. i will appreciate that, since we are all learning and nobody knows it all.
Thank u.
