Tinubu engages 50 SANs to make this bold move in court

The 2023 general elections president-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu has reportedly inaugurated a team of 50 Senior Advocates of Nigeria (SANs) to defend his election at the February 25, 2023 presidential pool before the Court of Appeal.

Tinubu was said to have instructed the 50-member team that the task before them is not just about defending his election, noting that it is a task that has the defence of democracy as its major prime.

It was gathered that this was disclosed by Tinubu’s lead counsel, Chief Wole Olanipekun (SAN), at the inaugural meeting in Ikoyi, Lagos on Wednesday, March 8.

The president-elect referred to the results of the presidential election, particularly those of Lagos and Katsina, his home state and that of President Muhammadu Buhari, saying the defeat suffered by the All Progressives Congress (APC) were unthinkable outcomes that were only possible due to the free and fair nature of the election.

Tinubu noted his complete trust in the abilities of members of his legal team, just as he said over the years he had worked with most of them in the course of his own defence of democracy and democratic institutions.

He expressed complete faith in the ability of members of the team to bring their wealth of knowledge, experience and diligence to bear in the defence of popular wishes of the Nigerian people.
