The Presidential Election Petitions Court has upheld the election victory of President Bola Tinubu, after throwing out the petitions of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM); the petitions of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its flag bearer, Atiku Abubakar; as well as the petitions of Labour Party (LP) and its presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

The five-man panel led by Justice Haruna Tsammani ruled that the cases lack merit.

After much anticipation, the Tribunal delivered its judgment at the Court of Appeal in Abuja, a proceeding that was televised live from 9am to minutes past 9pm.

The Tribunal first delivered its verdict on the petitions of the APM, followed by the LP and the PDP.

Justice Tsammani said, “This petition accordingly lacks merit. I affirm the return of Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the duly elected President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. The parties are to bear their cost.”

Meanwhile, another judge on the Tribunal, Justice Mistura Bolaji-Yusuf ruling criticized the failure of the Labour Party to bring any concrete evidence to back up their claims.
