the APC, PDP, the Attorney-General of the Federation and the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.<\/p>\n<p>It will be recalled that Nwajiuba, who is a chieftain of the APC and one of its presidential aspirants, had secured leave of the court to sue both his party\u2019s presidential flag-bearer, Tinubu, and that of the PDP, Atiku.<\/p>\n<p>Specifically, the Plaintiffs, in the suit they filed through their lawyer, Mr. Okere Nnamdi, alleged that the primary election that produced Tinubu as the 2023 presidential candidate of the APC, was marred by corruption and massive vote buying, insisting that majority of the delegates were bought over with dollars.<\/p>\n<p>To strengthen his allegation, the ex-Minister who polled only one vote at the primary election that was held on June 8, included in his proof of evidence, a video recording showing the immediate past Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, decrying that delegates at the APC primary sold their votes.<\/p>\n<p>Besides, the Plaintiffs queried Tinubu\u2019s source of income and his educational qualifications.<\/p>\n<p>They urged the court to declare that the 3rd defendant (Tinubu), \u201cwho had previously sworn an affidavit in the INEC nomination form declaring that he lost his primary and secondary school documents and benefitted therefrom, cannot in a later affidavit deny and abandon same facts deposed in the previous affidavit and thus falsely contradicting his academic qualifications\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Plaintiffs attached to the suit, copies of affidavits <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2022\/09\/30\/tinubu-not-in-london-for-medical-reasons-hes-healthy-source\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tinubu<\/a> deposed to while he was the governorship candidate of the Alliance for Democracy, AD, in Lagos state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat the entire circumstances surrounding the two depositions of the 3rd defendant points to the fact that they are false and misleading and cannot be relied upon.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat the possession of a higher degree does not substitute the minimum requirement of law, where the minimum academic requirement is manifestly absent by an avowed fact.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat the possession of a higher education qualification such as a first degree or master\u2019s degree is predicated on the minimum educational qualification as provided in the Constitution\u201d, plaintiffs averred.<\/p>\n<p>Among other things, the plaintiffs prayed the court to determine; \u201cWhether the All Progressives Congress is exempted from compliance with section 90(3) of the Electoral Act 2022, having presented the 3rd defendant (Tinubu) as its presidential candidate to the 6th defendant (INEC) and the 6th defendant accepted and published same, being the name of a person whose source of N100m contribution fee for the nomination form and expression of interest form was not verified.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhether the constitutional provision prescribing the academic qualification of candidates and prescribing minimum qualification of school certificate or its equivalent has been complied with by the 3rd defendant who on oath, has admitted that he does not possess such minimum qualification prescribed in the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The plaintiffs equally urged the court to also disqualify Atiku who was cited as the 4th Defendant in the suit, for also engaging in vote buying.<\/p>\n<p>They want the court to determine; \u201cWhether the conduct of the 3rd and 4th defendants (Tinubu and Atiku) and their agents who by way of corrupt inducement of delegates with US Dollars, which being a foreign currency and non-legal tender in Nigeria under the CBN Act, and the possession which requires declaration under the EFCC Act, used the Dollars for inducement of votes in favour of the 3rd and 4th defendants have rendered the votes of such delegates cast in favour of the 3rd and 4th defendants at the 1st and 2nd defendant\u2019s special conventions illegal, void and invalid and of no effect whatsoever; and thus inhibiting the 3rd and 4th defendants from benefiting from the proceeds of their own gross illegalities\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Friday, slated October 6 to hear a suit seeking to disqualify the presidential candidate of the All Progressive Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu, for allegedly acting in breach of the Electoral Act.
