Adeyanju: Presidential Tribunal May Not Invalidate Peter Obi And VP Shettima For Double Nomination

According to Daily Post , Deji Adeyanju, a political activist suggested that, the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT), might not nullify the selection of Peter Obi, the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP).

The Supreme Court had dismissed a lawsuit in May, that aimed to disqualify Tinubu and Shettima, on grounds of alleged dual nomination.

Adeyanju asserted that, “Will be extremely surprised if the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT), does not invalidate the nomination of Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), in line with the provisions of the EA on membership register. The Double nomination of Shettima is also enough to invalidate Tinubu’s candidacy.”

The People’s Democratic Party (PDP), presented the case to the highest court arguing that, Shettima held dual nominations as a senatorial candidate for Borno Central Senatorial District, and as the vice-presidential candidate, for the All Progressives Congress (APC).
