Tinubu's disqualification suit: I'm not ready to walk away – Atiku

DAILY POST

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate during the just concluded February 25 presidential election, Atiku Abubakar, has reacted to the recent Supreme Court judgement dismissing the disqualification suit against President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice President-elect Kashim Shettima.

Atiku claimed that the Court’s dismissal of the case was not a setback to his quest for justice, insisting that the President-elect was not qualified to contest the poll.

The former Vice President maintained that the 2023 election was fraudulent and did not comply with the constitutional requirements and the electoral guidelines of the Independent National Electoral Commission.

In a post via his verified Twitter handle on Friday after the Supreme Court judgement, Atiku said his legal team will robustly prove that the recently conducted election was fraudulent and did not comply with the constitutional requirements and the electoral guidelines of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.

DAILY POST reported earlier that the Apex Court dismissed the suit filed by the PDP, seeking Tinubu’s and Shettima’s disqualification from the 2023 presidential election.

The party was challenging their alleged double nomination.

However, the Supreme Court ruled that the PDP’s suit was grossly lacking in merit.

Meanwhile, Atiku said he is committed to the enthronement of a new order in the nation and would not walk away at this point.
