Today, Labour party legal team has released their response to the APC/INEC report.
Below are the few excerpts from the 42 paged well written report.
INEC argued that their Election Manual and Regulations are just mere instructions. Little did they know that Peter Obi’s legal team will ambush them with a Supreme Court judgement that said INEC regulations and manuals are NOT mere instructions but have the Force of LAW.⚖️

Peter Obi’s legal team has destroyed Wole Olanipekun’s argument that forfeiture is not a fine. Dr. Livy and his team have done a great job.
All I can say is that Bola Tinubu will be disqualified ‼️#AllEyesOnTheJudiciary pic.twitter.com/rUHSU8A1uL

The LP & Peter Obi legal team has made it clear that the INEC manual for election officials is a legal document, citing precedence.
"Are subsidiary legislations, and its provisions must be invoked, applied, and enforced"!

The issue of Forfeiture has been put to rest by Peter Obi's lawyers on Section 137(1)(d)
It is crystal clear that Forfeiture is a Fine!
Tinubu will be disqualify and heaven will NOT fall!

Peter Obi's lawyers arguments in their Final written address is too good that even a Corrupt Judge will have no justification to disagree with them.

Dr. Livy SAN and his team for Peter Obi took the tribunal to USA in their written address to show what 'FORFEITURE' means
While Prince UChe SAN and his team brought the tribunal back to the words of the current CJN
It is a consolidated case,which way you want to look at it, pic.twitter.com/ELX86JitoV

Obi made the Oyetola case irrelevant for Tinubu and made it relevant for himself.
Indeed, the court was correct when it held that the law does not support upload to 'INEC National Electoral Register of Database' but to be uploaded to Collation System and IREV.#LiveFromPEPT pic.twitter.com/g8C0yD8ncM

Who remember when I kept shouting ESTOPPEL & ESTOPPED? The lawyers are wise, I no dey whine you!
The law CANNOT allow INEC make us believe that they will transmit to Collation System & IREV only to go back on it after voting.
They MUST BE ESTOPPED! Read for yourself! 🤝 pic.twitter.com/vAlZZp7Gcs

INEC cannot blow Hot and cold at the same time. They cannot approbate and reprobate. They cannot say they will transmit to IREV and Collation System and also say they won't.
The law won't allow them. That is what the lawyers argued in those paragraphs.#LiveFromPEPT

Na Livy Uzoukwu SAN write this part… Inknew when I saw 'woth the very great respect' 😂😂😂
He countered that 'Preparatory Note' in a very sound manner and called it a 'deliberate & mischievous understanding of the kernel of the Petitioners Case'.
That was intelligent!🤝 pic.twitter.com/nCfMhwd81s

Dr. Livy led legal team argued that the PDP case which was on evidence were mere comments and not ratios (reasons for decision), hence cannot be relied upon.
He argued that the question before the court was who could challenge the nomination of a candidate which led the court… pic.twitter.com/2z1OWCcBYS

to rule that PDP had no locus, he further argued that the question now is whether at the time of being Vice presidential candidate, if he was still a candidate for the Senate.
They the Justice Tsammani to his own decision on Ekpeudpm v APC where he held that the word 'SHALL' … pic.twitter.com/45200EfHqY

Just like the PDP Address, the LP Lawyers wasted no time in reprimanding the careless statement of Tinubu about anarchy and justice.
They called it a 'Cheap, misguided, and destructive blackmail' targeted at the Judiciary and the constitution.

LP intelligent lawyers reemphasized what I told you that the ossie of drug case is not premised on Section 137(1)(e). I shouted it and got tired.
It's premised on Section 137(1)(d) which has no 10 years limitation period. In fact, Section 494, ACJA sees FORFEITURE AS A FINE! pic.twitter.com/16I5XBM9yn

I just noticed that LP Lawyers even argued it 😂
Please can someone tag SANdalili to come and bring his own arguments pic.twitter.com/DmhCHqlVu0
