Breaking: Supreme Court Upholds Tinubu’s Victory
All the seven judges of the Supreme Court have upheld the victory of President Bola Tinubu during the February 25 presidential election after dismissing appeals brought before it, challenging the declaration made by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) during 2023 general election.
The apex court in its ruling held that the appeal filed by the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, lacked merit.
Atiku had approached the court to overturn the judgment of the presidential election petition tribunal which affirmed Tinubu’s election as president.
But on Thursday, the seven-man panel led by Justice Inyang Okoro stated that there was no merit in the appeal brought before it by the applicants.
Other members of the seven-man panel include Justice Garba Lawal, Justice Adamu Lawal, Justice Emmanuel Agim, Justice Uwani Abba-Aji, and others.
According to the court, “On the whole, having resolved all the issues against the appellant, it is my view that there is no merit in the appeal and it is hereby dismissed,” Justice Inyang Okoro said.
“The judgment of the court below delivered on September 6th 2023 affirming the election of the second respondent as the duly elected President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is hereby affirmed.”
