Court Strikes Out APM’s Suit Against Tinubu, Shettima For Lack of Merit

The Presidential Election Petition Tribunal—PEPT, on Wednesday dismissed the suit seeking the disqualification of Bola Tinubu and Senator Kashim Shettima as President and Vice-President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

In a landmark Judgment read by Justice Tsammani, chairman of the five man presidential election petition tribunal, declared that the APM suit lacked merit.

Recall that the APM had claimed that Shettima’s nomination as Tinubu’s running mate was in breach of the provisions of sections 29(1), 33, 35, and 84(1)(2) of the Electoral Act.
