Published

Presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Abubakar Atiku, has suffered a major legal setback in his search to upturn the election of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as Nigeria’s elected President.

The Presidential Election Petitions Court on Wednesday struck out several paragraphs of his petition relied upon to push Tinubu out of office.

Also, several exhibits, including witness statements he tendered to establish his allegations of irregularities, malpractices against the February 25 presidential election, were rejected and discontenanced by the court.

In his ruling on the objection filed against the petition, a member of the panel of Justices of the court, Justice Moses Ugoh, held that several parts of Atiku’s petition had no legs upon which they can stand and survive, hence, not competent.
