INEC Lawyer Challenges Atiku's Election Win: Is 25% In Abuja Required?" by Glimpsetv(op):
During today's tribunal hearing, the lawyer representing INEC emphasized that Atiku Abubakar cannot be declared the winner of the last election because he only scored 15% of the votes in the FCT. Does this indicate that obtaining a minimum of 25% in Abuja is a mandatory requirement?


Here is the verbatim exchange that took place between the lawyer representing INEC and the witness from the PDP:


INEC: You will agree with me that Atiku scored 15% in FCT

Witness: Yes

INEC: So that means he cannot be made the president since he did not score 25% in FCT

Witness: Even Tinubu did not score 25% and u made him president.

.. but Tinubu got more qualification than Atiku and Obi. Tinubu has majority votes, but Atiku and Obi failed to meet that and Tinubu had 2/3rd of states in Nigeria, but others failed to meet up. Tinubu remains most qualified among them, Obi and Atiku should go and sort themselves out first

Tinubu has majority votes via massive rigging by eyenec.

The lawyer only wants the witness to contradict PDP ground of petition.
