 On Wednesday, the presidential election petitions tribunal affirmed the
victory of Bola Tinubu as the duly elected president of the Federal Republic of
Nigeria in the February 25 election.

The five-member panel tribunal
dismissed three different petitions challenging the outcome of the presidential
poll.

Part of the issues raised by the
petitioners against Tinubu included his failure to secure 25 percent of votes
cast in the federal capital territory (FCT), his forfeiture of $460,000 in the
US, his academic records alleged to have been forged and his non-qualification
due to the double nomination of his running mate, Kashim Shettima.

The petitioners also challenged
the failure of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to transmit
election results electronically.

However, the tribunal led by
Haruna Tsammani held that the petitioners — Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP), Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) and the Allied Peoples Movement (APM),
failed to adduce credible evidence to prove the allegations contained in their
different petitions.

Consequently, the court held that
all three petitions were “devoid of merit”.
