The petitions challenging President Bola Tinubu’s election victory, filed by the Labour Party (LP), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), were dismissed recently.

A five-man panel led by Justice Haruna Tsammani rejected Peter Obi’s LP petition, which aimed to invalidate Tinubu’s election.

Additionally, they dismissed APM’s petition, which sought to disqualify the president due to the alleged invalid nomination of his running mate, Senator Kashim Shettima.

Furthermore, Atiku Abubakar’s suit attempting to disqualify Tinubu on the grounds of dual citizenship was also rejected.
