Polls: Tinubu’s Victory Can’t Be Annulled Over None Electronic Transmission Of Election Results—S/Court

Published

on

The Supreme Court has held that the failure by the Independent National Electoral Commission to transmit election results electronically did not affect the outcome of the election and could not warrant the nullification of the result of the  presidential election.

 

Justice John Inyang Okoro, made the pronouncement in a lead judgment on the appeal by former Vice President and Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar; and that of the candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi, seeking to nullify the February 25, presidential election of President Bola Tinubu.

Justice Inyang Okoro also dismissed the issue of the 25% requirement for Abuja, as a none issue.

Okoro is still reading his judgment.
