BREAKING: Supreme Court Upholds President Tinubu’s Election, Dismisses Atiku's Appeal Challenging Tribunal Judgment
October 26, 2023

The Supreme Court on Thursday upheld the ruling of the Presidential Election Petition Court affirming the election of President Bola Tinubu.

The apex court dismissed the appeal filed by Atiku Abubakar and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, challenging the September 6 judgment of the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal.

The court also dismissed the argument of Atiku Abubakar that Tinubu’s victory should be nullified because he did not score 25% of the votes cast in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory.
