The Presidential Election Petitions Court has concluded the proceedings in the petition filed by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, seeking to challenge the outcome of the February 25 presidential election.
A panel of five justices, with Justice Haruna Tsammani presiding, announced that the judgement date would be communicated to all parties involved.
During the hearing, the court observed the adoption of final written addresses by all the parties in the petition. Now, the nation awaits the court’s decision on the matter.
Atiku is challenging the outcome of the February 25 election and praying the court to nullify President Bola Tinubu’s victory.
Among several issues raised in the joint petition, Atiku and the PDP are alleging that Tinubu was not qualified to contest the poll.
They claim that the president was indicted for drug trafficking in the United States, that his academic certificates submitted to INEC were forged, and that Tinubu is a citizen of Guinea.
The petitioners also accused INEC of manipulating the poll to favour Tinubu.
The petitioners closed their case on June 23 after calling 27 witnesses. (CONTINUE READING HERE)
