Tuesday in Abuja, during a pre-hearing interview with journalists, the attorney stated this.

In the three weeks allotted to his team, he explained, he would concentrate on the case's most significant witnesses.

He stated, 

We have written five letters indicating to pay and that we’re ready to collect those documents. The letters were duly received and endorsed by INEC. Why are they telling lies to say that we couldn’t pay? This is very unfortunate.

Las las, this election tribunal will just be used to waste Peter Obi's time, money, and resources.

Nothing positive will come of it.
