The D-Day is around the corner! September 16, or before, is the judgment day for the much awaited legal challenge to the Independent National Electoral Commission’s declaration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu as president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and Commander-in- chief of the armed forces.
Nigerians are waiting in anxiety and anticipation, as passions remain inflamed and expectation rising, especially against the backdrop of the hardship in the land, as the five Justices that listened and heard the election petitions filed by the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, and the Labour Party (LP), Mr. Peter Obi, at the presidential election petition tribunal, disputing with tons of evidence, the victory of President Bola Tinubu in the February 25 presidential election, are about to give judgment on the highly contentious matter of law, that many legal experts believe will set a new precedent in election jurisprudence and adjudication.
