The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Abubakar Atiku has pleaded with the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal to summon enough courage to do what he called substantial justice to his petition seeking the nullification of President Bola Tinubu as winner of the February 25 election.
Atiku pointedly said on Sunday that contrary to any threat, the heavens will not fall if the President is sacked by the tribunal on the account of what he called the massive electoral fraud that brought him into office.
In his final written address, Atiku dismissed Tinubu’s threat as an empty one deployed to scare the tribunal from upholding justice in the petition challenging his victory.
The former Vice President maintained that President Tinubu had lost the moral and legal rights to be in office having admitted a punitive forfeiture of $460,000 in a narcotics and money laundering-related matter.
He also accused INEC of manipulating the results of the presidential election in the most corrupt manner in favor of Tinubu and unlawfully proclaiming him winner of the election.
