Hold on.

Why does it look to me that all these lawyers are either from the 3 Geopolitical Zones in Northern Nigeria or the South West?

If that is true, it would suggest that there is no South Eastern lawyer in the team - where the biggest complainants, Labour Party and Peter Obi, are from.

It would suggest something really Tribal.

APC no get hope to win this case. They just dey confuse. 45,000 SANs cannot save them 🤣🤣

Their only hope in this case is pushing INEC not to allow Obi and Atiku access to BVAS. Once they achieve that, Obi is gone.

Sadly for APC and INEC, no court in the world no matter how corrupt will give a defendant other to destroy the evidence of the plaintiff...that very court by so doing have become an accomplice and will be disbanded.

I pity those lawyers, they don't know what they've gotten themselves into. It's a very hard task trying to defend Tinubu the old senile druggie bastard from iragbiji undecided tongue

Tell these 12 fools that the evidence against APC is glaring and much, defeat is looming for the iragbiji drug lord undecided tongue

Which SANER SAN will accept a man suffering dementia to lead him and 200m other saner Nigerians?
Nigerians did not vote Tinubu to succeed President Buhari. INEC botched the election process by misleading voters.
A man suffering dementia and forfeited drug trafficking money to the US government in the past, shouldn't have aspired to preside over Nigeria in the first place.
