Peter Obi loses as Tribunal upholds Tinubu’s victory

 

The presidential election tribunal has upheld the victory of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The tribunal ruled that Peter Obi and Labour Party failed to prove claims of electoral malpractice against the governing All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2023 presidential election.

“This petition is hereby declared unmeritorious,” one of the judges said.

“The documents promised by the petitioners were not attached to the petition and served on the respondents,” he added.

The Justice ruled that Obi and the Labour Party did not adequately detail their allegations of corrupt practices, vote suppression, fictitious results, and other irregularities in their petition.
