Tinubu’s Legal Team, Atiku’s Aide Trade Words Over Watermark On Tribunal Judgement CTC
Eko Hot Blog reports that “It is very clear that there are many questions begging for answers,” Phrank Shaibu, an aide to former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, said in a statement on Saturday.
“Why did the PEPC come to the decision to avail the respondents, especially the Tinubu Legal Team to have a first receipt of the CTC of the judgement before the plaintiffs?” he asked.
“Nigerians want to know why the PEPC confers special privileges to the Tinubu Legal Team by making them have a first custody of copies of the PEPC judgement, even though it was more urgent for the petitioners who needed the document in order to cause an appeal to the Supreme Court within 14 days including weekends?”
Shaibu said the inscription at the top left-hand corner of the 798-page document is neither a monochrome nor a metadata.
“It is actually a HEADER, meaning that except for a valid explanation, the Tinubu Presidential Legal Team is the originator of the document.”
He said by challenging Tinubu’s victory, Atiku is making a last-ditch effort to “salvage our country and deepen our democracy”.
“The certified true copies issued to us and other parties in the petitions by the registry do not contain the said inscription and any insinuation to the contrary is untrue,” Babatunde Ogala, coordinator of Tinubu’s legal team, said in a statement.
“Counsel to the petitioners will also appreciate the fact that the insinuations being circulated in some quarters are untrue, unkind, unfair, and unfortunate, as they have the same certified copies of the judgment as we have,” he added.
