Yesterday, July 6 2024, the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, GCFR hosted members of his Presidential Legal Team that succesfully defended the 5 Election Petitions against him to a private dinner at the Presidential Villa, Abuja. I was the convener and coordinator of the team led by Chief Wole.Olanipekun, CFR; SAN.
The President in his remarks said of my humble self, “Tunde is my friend………anytime we gave him assignments especially on law, he has always delivered. He is knowledgeable and resourceful. Thank you Tunde…..”
The Attorney General of the Federation , Prince Lateef Fagbemi, SAN who was the Deputy Leader of.the Legal Team before his appointment as AGF said
“The legal work was complemented with a dedicated and fully resourced team secretariat which was effectively coordinated by our ubiquitous brother silk , Babatunde K. Ogala SAN OFR. As the trusted link to our clients , he ensured we lacked no logistic wherewithal to give our utmost”
The leader of the team, Chief Wole Olanipekun, CFR; SAN also in his remarks poured enconiums on yours sincerely for the hardwork put into the assignment.
The AGF further said of the President “One of President Tinubu’s many unique selling points is his reputation to let no good deed done to him go unacknowledged, un-rewarded or without fulfilling his commitments in the bargain ; and tonite again it is being re-enacted.”
Thank you very much Mr President, our bar leaders and my colleagues on the Tinubu Presidential Legal Team for the honour and encomiums freely showered on me before, during and after the Presidential Election Petition litigation process and thereafter and at the Presidential Villa, Aso Rock yesterday.
