The All Progressives Congress national chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje; Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila; National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu and others have stormed the Supreme Court as hearing of appeals against President Bola Ahmed Tinubu takes place today.
Also sighted in the courtroom on Monday, October 25, 2023, was the acting National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Umar Damagum.
Recall that the presidential candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, the Labour Party (LP), Peter Obi, and the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), are in court seeking to nullify the victory of President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the February 25, 2023 presidential election.
VerseNews reports that the seven-member panel of the apex court is led by Justice John Okoro.
Other members of the panel are Justices Uwani Abba-Aji, Mohammed Lawal Garba, Adamu Jauro, Ibrahim Saulawa, Tijani Abubakar and Emmanuel Agim.
The Supreme Court communicated the hearing date through notices sent to all the parties, last Thursday.
In addition to contesting the decision of the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC), which upheld Tinubu’s election, Atiku also applied for approval to present a copy of Tinubu’s academic records from Chicago State University (CSU), USA.
Atiku alleged that these records revealed Tinubu had submitted a counterfeit CSU certificate to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The former vice president is also pursuing legal action in a Washington, D.C. court to demand the release of documents concerning President Tinubu’s $460,000 forfeiture case by the FBI.
