JUST IN: PRESIDENT TINUBU IS AFFIRMED BY THE SUPREME COURT AS THE VICTOR OF THE 2023 ELECTIONS.

President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress, or APC, was declared the legitimate victor of the nation’s February 25 presidential election by the Supreme Court on Thursday.

Atiku Abubakar’s challenge against President Bola Tinubu’s election was denied by the Supreme Court. The court decided on Thursday that Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) nominee, had not presented a valid appeal.

Justice Inyang Okoro stated, “In general, I believe this appeal has no merit.” Atiku attempted to reverse the presidential election petition tribunal’s ruling, which upheld Tinubu’s election to the office of president.
