In a shocking significant legal development available to us at occupygh.com, Nigeria’s Court of Appeal has dismissed the challenges to Bola Tinubu’s presidential election victory.
Following an exhaustive 10-hour deliberation, the judges concluded that the petitions filed by his primary opponents, Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party and Peter Obi of the Labour Party, lacked merit.
The challengers had alleged extensive electoral irregularities in their bid to contest the legitimacy of Mr. Tinubu’s electoral win.
Notably, despite these legal challenges, Bola Tinubu was inaugurated as the President on May 29, solidifying his leadership role in Nigeria’s political landscape.
What does this ruling mean?
In simple words, the court has ruled that Bola Tinubu won the Presidential Election on mere merit. He therefore continues to be president of Nigeria until the next election.
