Peter Obi Responds To Suit By PDP Seeking His Disqualification From Contesting For The 2023 Election
Dr. Peter Obi, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, has responded to the suit filed before a Federal High Court in Abuja by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, seeking his disqualification from contesting for the 2023 election.
PDP had approached the court, asking it to stop Obi from replacing Okupe as his running mate.
PDP also requested the court to prevent Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the standard bearer of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, from replacing Kabiru Masari as his running mate.
The PDP prayed the Court to disqualify both men from contesting the 2023 presidential election if they replace Okupe and Masari as their running mates.
Obi and Tinubu have replaced Okupe and Masari with Yusuf Baba-Ahmed and Kashim Shettima, respectively, as their running mates.
Obi, who responded to the originating motion, via a notice of preliminary objection, dated July 18, through his lawyer, Alex Ejesieme (SAN), wants the Court to strike out or dismiss PDP’s suit “for want of requisite jurisdiction”.
The objection by Obi to the PDP’s prayers is based on four grounds.
“The plaintiff’s suit is speculative, conjectural in nature and devoid of hard facts, thereby divesting this court of jurisdiction to adjudicate over same,” read the first ground.
Obi’s counsel said that the PDP “has not disclosed any reasonable cause of action to activate the jurisdiction” of the court.
Obi’s counsel added that the PDP’s suit “is not situated within the jurisdictional confines of the Federal High Court”.
“The plaintiff’s suit is a gross abuse of the court process,” Obi’s counsel added.
The renewed agreement reinforces the longstanding partnership between the artist and the label. It positions Chadreek for the next phase of his career with enhanced support across music production, distribution, marketing, and international expansion.
Known for his smooth vocal delivery and consistent output, Chadreek has steadily cultivated a dedicated following through standout records including Ori Mi (featuring Seyi Vibez), Better Dayz, Awure, and his earlier project No Bad Vibe. The renewed deal is expected to accelerate his momentum as he prepares new music and broadens his presence across Africa and global markets.
A source close to the camp confirmed that both parties are fully aligned on a clear vision for the artist’s next chapter, with a strong emphasis on high-quality releases and strategic growth.
This renewal marks another significant milestone in Chadreek’s journey as he continues to establish his place within the Afrobeats landscape.
