As court on Wednesday postponed judgment on a legal challenge disputing the eligibility of opposition leader Muhammadu Buhari to stand in this weekend’s general election because he cannot produce his secondary school leaving certificate.

Mike Ozekhome has warned Buhari supporters against celebrating prematurely as the High Court could overturn Saturday’s result if it finds Buhari lacked the requisite qualification.

Buhari’s All Progressives Congress claim the petition is part of a ruling party plot to disqualify its 72-year-old candidate days before Saturday’s vote.
“The suit has been adjourned to the 22nd and 23rd of April, 2015,” judge Ademola Adeniyi told the Federal High Court in the capital, Abuja.

The petition filed by a private citizen, Chukwunweike Okafor, and argued by Mike Ozekhome, one of Nigeria’s most prominent lawyers with close ties to the ruling party, claimed that Buhari lacked the required academic credentials to stand for president.
It also argued that he lied under oath to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) when he swore that the military was in possession of his academic papers.

Buhari, a former army general, led Nigeria as a military ruler for 20 months beginning in December 1983 and has stood for the presidency three times previously.
Buhari’s lawyer, Akin Olujinmi, said he was “absolutely happy” with the court decision as it removed the air of uncertainty and “pressure” on the INEC with the election just three days away.

Ozekhome warned Buhari supporters against celebrating prematurely as the High Court could overturn Saturday’s result if it finds Buhari lacked the requisite qualifications.

“In the event, for example, Buhari wins the election, all it simply means is that, when eventually we finish this case and the court found that he was not qualified… the court will simply dethrone him,” Ozekhome told reporters.

According to Nigerian law, presidential candidates must have completed secondary school.

The whereabouts of Buhari’s secondary school certificate was not raised during his three previous presidential campaigns in 2003, 2007 and 2011.

But the emergence of the question this year, with Buhari seen as having his best-ever shot at winning the polls, raised eyebrows in opposition camps.

President Goodluck Jonathan’s People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has controlled the presidency since military rule ended in 1999.

permit me to say a big well done to all the progressives in the house.well done, the change we seek for is here already by God's grace and there is nothing pdp can do about it.

now about this crap of a case, it is obvious that this has been oga jonny walker clueless masterstroke all along:use the hungry lawyer to file for disqualification after Buhari emerges President.

Tanoids, guess what, dem no born pdp well make they try am.after 16yrs, if your party cannot run on its records, then get ready for the defeat.

Change is here to stay.
are you an educated illiterate that reads without understanding?

Re: Ozekhome Warns Buhari Supporters Against Celebrating Prematurely!!! by Nobody: 7:28am On Mar 26, 2015
[size=18pt]Ozekhome and his Clients should approach an alternative court and obtain injunction that the 2015 Presidential results should not be published by INEC until the eligibility of Buhari is established!

It seems stupid that a suit challenging the eligibility of a candidate was adjourned until after the election. If we want to remain stagnant then lets remain stagnant!

Firstly, if GEJ and PDP can massively rig the presidential election and declare themselves the winner, lawsuit against Buhari will die a natural death.
On the other hand, if Buhari triumphs, as is expected, PDP will resort to the law court in an effort to invalidate the contest.
APC has to remain on guard. I would have loved a categorical dismissal of the case. In the meantime, I believe in the APC's ability to foresee, defend and defeat any PDP demonic tactics.
Chanji!
true talk dude.......... I jxt hope pdp wnt be able to rig dis election
