Presidential Election Tribunal: Peter Accuses INEC of Bias

Both petitions have Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC), and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as respondents.

The adjournment of the APP’s petitions is to allow the party issues to be determined by the Tribunal.

The APP presidential candidate, Simon Nnadi, and his party are praying for the tribunal to disqualify the president-elect, Bola Tinubu on the grounds that he is not qualified to contest in the election.

On the other hand, Obi and the Labour Party are seeking the tribunal to determine that Tinubu failed to score one-quarter of the votes cast at the Presidential Election in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, and was not entitled to be declared and returned as the winner of the presidential election held on 25 February 2023.

The petitioners also faulted the nomination of Kashim Shettima as a vice presidential candidate, describing it defective as he did not withdraw from his nomination as a senatorial candidate of his party before accepting to serve as the vice presidential candidate of Tinubu.

That the president-elect was not duly elected by the majority of the lawful votes cast at the time of the election. They alleged that he was linked to drug trafficking by US court.
