Tinubu’s Victory: Obi files 51 grounds of appeal at S’Court

The Labour Party candidate said the Presidential Election Petitions Court erred in law.

Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, has submitted 51 reasons to the Supreme Court, aiming to overturn the Presidential Election Petition court’s decision and President Bola Tinubu’s election.

Obi claims the Election Petitions Court made a legal mistake when dismissing his petition challenging the presidential election results.

He argues that the Tribunal, led by Justice Haruna Tsammani, delivered a miscarriage of justice by not recognizing the polling units with irregularities.

He also criticizes the PEPC for rejecting his case due to the absence of specific vote figures for President Tinubu and the APC.

Obi accuses the panel of misinterpreting the Electoral Act in dismissing paragraphs of his petition.

He asserts that his right to a fair hearing was violated when his witnesses’ evidence was deemed inadequate.

Obi claims that INEC uploaded 18,088 unclear results on its portal, which the tribunal overlooked.

He further alleges that INEC provided 8,123 blurred results to his legal team, containing blank papers, pictures, and unknown individuals, passing them off as polling unit results.
