Former Ation minister, Femi Fani Kayode has aired his views on claims that the legal team of Tinubu/Shettima wrote the judgement of the Presidential Election Petition Court which was delivered last Wednesday.
It was also alleged that the President’s legal team received a copy of the judgment before it was formally delivered.
The former Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, chieftain described the claims as ‘simply absurd.’
According to him, this is surely the most insidious, savage, blatant and vicious attack on the integrity of the country’s judiciary.
Fani-Kayode, also noted that the coordinator of the Tinubu’s legal team, Babatunde Ogala, SAN, has already explained why the inscription and wording that made reference to the President’s lawyers at the top of a copy of the judgement came about.

A 23-year-old female student of Gombe State University (GSU), Rahab Musa Sambo, has been arrested for allegedly killing her newborn baby.
Miss Rahab, a final year student in the Department of Public Administration at the university, allegedly threw the newborn through a window, a few hours after she delivered the baby inside a toilet in one of the female hostel blocks.
A source in the university, who craved anonymity, said the student who hailed from Filiya town of Shongom Local Government Area of Gombe State, conceived the pregnancy outside wedlock, and decided to kill the baby boy by throwing him through the window after she delivered him on Saturday morning.
“Immediately after she delivered the boy, she threw him out through the hostel window. The baby died instantly,” the source said.
