Court orders applicants, lawyer to pay Tinubu, APC N17m for seeking to stop presidential inauguration

A Federal High Court, Abuja, on Friday, awarded a total sum of N17 million against three applicants and their lawyer in a suit, seeking to stop the swearing-in of Sen. Bola Tinubu on May 29 as fifth Nigeria’s democratic president.

Justice James Omotosho, in a ruling, described the suit as being “frivolous, vexatious and an abuse of court processes.”
