Habu is also the Coordinator, Northern Evangelism, The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries.

The cleric, who dragged the three respondents, Buhari, APC and INEC before the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal in Abuja, asked the tribunal to among other things, declare the victory of Buhari and the APC at the February 23 Presidential election null and void.

Habu in his petition said the name of his party and logo were unlawfully omitted from the ballot papers by INEC thereby denying him the opportunity of contesting in the election.

Incidentally, the name and logo of the PDM appeared on the ballot papers of governorship, National Assembly and state assembly elections.

In the petition which was marked CA/PEPC/004/2019 and filed on March 19, 2019 and obtained by The PUNCH, the PDM candidate said he and his party had spent a lot of money on campaigns and they felt cheated by INEC.

He, therefore, sought five reliefs.

The demands read, “The first petitioner (Habu) was validly nominated by the second petitioner (PDM) but unlawfully excluded by the first respondent (INEC) from the election into the office of the President held on February 23, 2019.

Waste of time and resources, If election will be conducted 10000 times no any candidate can defeat president BUHARI.

This is a straight case. The election will be cancelled unless APC settles him for withdrawal of the petition.
