Babatunde Ogala, the Legal Director of Bola Tinubu-Kashim Shettima Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), has confirmed that the President-elect's camp has officially received notices of the petitions filed by Peter Obi, the Labour Party presidential candidate, and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, his counterpart in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), at the election tribunal.
Why this matters: The named oppositions had accused Bola Tinubu of dodging the petitions and approached the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC), seeking permission to serve the petitions on him through substituted means.
The three-man panel of the court led by Justice Joseph Ikyegh, directed that the petitions should be served on Tinubu, through his party, the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
