The spokesperson for the Peter Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Council, Yunusa Tanko, has disclosed that Peter Obi’s legal team is considering filing an appeal at the Supreme Court, possibly on Tuesday.
Notably, there are no intentions to alter the composition of his legal team, as confirmed by Tanko. He stated, “I just confirmed that we have not filed the appeal. That will be done between now and Tuesday. We are also not seeking to engage or tweak our team of lawyers.”
Kehinde Edun, the National Legal Adviser of LP, concurred, explaining, “We have not filed the appeal yet because we are still within the time frame. It will be done any moment from now. Our legal team is still intact. They are some of our best hands. There is no reason to change them since we do not doubt their capabilities.”
As previously reported, Peter Obi’s petitions contesting Bola Tinubu’s victory in the 2023 Presidential election were dismissed by the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal in Abuja. In response, the LP presidential candidate has affirmed his commitment to challenging the tribunal’s ruling at the highest court in the land.
