Recall that 24-hours after rejecting the results of presidential and National Assembly polls, alleging irregularities, the PDP summoned its legal team to a meeting.

Reports say the meeting summoned by the main opposition party discussed the next legal line of action following the elections.

The PDP had alleged that the results of the presidential and National Assembly polls announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had been altered and, therefore, are unacceptable to the party.
