The spokesman for the Peter Obi-Datti Presidential Campaign Council, Mr Yunusa Tanko, has said that Peter Obi’s legal team will likely be filing an appeal to the Supreme Court on Tuesday.
Tanko and Kehinde Edun, the Labour Party National Legal Adviser, who spoke to reporters on Friday, said that Obi has no intention of changing his legal team.
“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,” Tanko said.
Edun said, “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.”
Peter Obi’s petition challenging the victory of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu was struck out by the 5-man Presidential Election Petition Tribunal in Abuja, led by Justice Haruna Tsammani.
The LP Presidential candidate has since vowed to challenge the Tribunal ruling at the Supreme Court as he termed the Tribunal’s decision as a miscarriage of justice.
