Lawyer and public affairs analyst Barrister Buhari Yusuf has criticised the approach taken by former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi over his demand concerning President Bola Tinubu’s credentials, saying the matter should be pursued through the appropriate constitutional and legal channels.

Speaking during an interview on Trust TV, Yusuf said Obi was fully aware of the constitutional responsibilities of the Independent National Electoral Commission and argued that the commission does not possess the legal authority to grant the request being demanded.

“Why can’t Peter Obi wait if he has any issue with Tinubu’s credentials until after the 2027 election, or go to court, or simply ask for a constitutional amendment to make it law? But we’re asking INEC, and he knows that INEC doesn’t have the right to do that. I think he’s just playing to the gallery.”
