Presidential Election Tribunal Decides Atiku, Buhari’s Fate Today

The presidential election petition tribunal will today deliver judgement in the petition brought by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.

TheLagostimes recalls that the petition was filed on March 18, about 177 days ago.

According to the provisions of the electoral law, a petition of this nature is to be determined within 180 days after it was filed.

The PDP is challenging the emergence of President Muhammadu Buhari as winner of the 2019 presidential election.

According to the petitioners, Mr Abubakar’s investigation of the central server from the Independent National Electoral Commission showed that the PDP polled 18,356,732 votes, instead of the 11,262,978 votes attributed to it by INEC.
