The Presidential Election Petitions Court sitting in Abuja has ordered the legal team of President Bola Tinubu to open its defence against the petition filed by the presidential candidate of the People’s Democratic party, Atiku Abubakar, which alleged Tinubu was rigged into power in connivance with the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
The order came on Monday after the legal team of INEC, led by A.B. Mahmoud SAN, closed its defence of the election victory of Tinubu with one witness.
