“When the matter came up, a squabble ensued between the two counsels as to who had the authority of INEC to represent it in the case."The National Publicity Secretary of the Labour Party , Obiora Ifog, has alleged a plan to frustrate its candidate, Amobi Oga’s case at the Court of Appeal in Lagos.He said Mr Ogah of the Labour Party contested and won with a large margin, the Federal House of Representatives seat for Isikwuato/Umunneochi Federal Constituency, of Abia.
“INEC had engaged a Senior Counsel, J.O. Asoluka , as its lawyer with a letter of authorisation to represent the commission. He said the commission also did not see any need to inform the plaintiff of the development as required by law. This, he said, was to enable INEC to put its house in order and determine who of the two counsels, had the authority to represent her in the appeal.
