Labour Party rejects tribunal’s verdict on petition challenging Tinubu’s election

The Labour Party has rejected the verdict of the presidential election petition tribunal on its petitions challenging President Bola Tinubu’s victory in the February 25 election.

The five-member panel headed by Justice Haruna Tsammani had earlier on Wednesday dismissed the party’s petitions challenging the outcome of the election.

The LP had approached the tribunal to set aside the president’s victory in the election on the ground that he did not secure 25 percent vote in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
