I can see that some Batists and even LP supporters do not understand what just played out over the last month in court.

To break it down so it's clear.

These are PO n Atiku's prayers.

All the prayers will be DETERMINED in the FINAL JUDGMENT.

(Brief Summary of prayers pleaded in court) :

1. Eligibility

That It be determined that:

A) At the time of the Presidential Elections, 2nd & 3rd Respondents (Tinubu & Shettima) were unqualified to contest

What was tendered in court.

- BAT has multiple nationalities. Atiku's witness presented his Guinean passport - *Fact*
Derisively BATs lawyer contended it had expired. Nationality does not expire with passports.

- BAT committed perjury by submitting a Chicago University degree that was shown to be forged - *Fact*
- Tinubu Bola A. Who was admitted to CSU for a degree was shown to be a woman and American citizen - *Notarized document shows the Tinubu Bola A. Is a woman and American citizen*
Let the courts decide

Shettima was shown to have been nominated as VP, 4 days before he withdrew from the senate nomination.
- *Most people who are unaware point to the Supreme Court Judgment in May 2023. That merely threw out the case on a technicality*
The technicality was that PDP challenged it, as a pre-election matter (can only be done by a fellow APC candidate. PO n Atiku can only challenge it as a post election matter.
Let the PEPT tribunal decide this incontrovertible fact.

B) All the votes recorded to Tinubu were wasted due to qualification/disqualification of Tinubu and Shettima

- See above

C) On the basis of the remaining votes (after discountenancing Tinubu and Shettima) , Obi scored majority of the lawful votes cast in 2/3rd of the States And the FCT, therefor met the requirements to be declared winner

*This proof was submitted in the documents and evidence filed before the PEPT. That was why INEC and APC fought their own CTC documents*
LP lawyers submitted their written arguments n are not required to plead it in court. That's why you never heard much about it. They only submitted INEC CTC of the forms EC8A, EC8B, EC8C,and EC8D to the burtress their asertions.
In addition, PO challenged the results of 32 states, including Abuja, where his votes were under counted.
*Once these votes are fully allocated to him, and votes removed from BAT, it will become apparent he won the popular vote and met the spread requirements*

2) 25% in Abuja
That it be determined that Tinubu failed to score 25% in the FCT and hence ought not to have been declared winner.
- *Supreme Court in 2007 held that 25% of Abuja is a sine qua none. Thus, BAT n Atiku can not be declared as winners*

3) In Alternate, a Fresh Election

Order the cancellation of the elections and order INEC to conduct a fresh one that Tinubu & Shettima shall not participate in

- *This will only happen if BAT is disqualified and PO can not be declared absolute winner due to PO not meeting the spread (25% in 2/3 states).*
Atiku can not be declared winner since he didn't get 25% in Abuja*

4) Alternatively, they get elected by the majority of lawful votes cast

That it be determined that

A) That Tinubu was not duly elected by a majority. Therefore, his declaration as winner is unlawful, unconstitutional, and of no effect

B) Based on the valid votes cast, Obi scored the highest number of votes in 2/3rd of the States and the FCT and ought to be declared winner

C) An order directing INEC to issue Certificate of Return to Obi as duly elected President be issued

In Further Alternative to 1-4 Above:

5) Void

A) That the Presidential elections conducted on Feb 25th, 2023 is void on the grounds that it was not conducted in accordance to the Electoral Act 2022 and the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended

- *This was shown by INECs shenanigans*

B)Order the cancellation of the Presidential Elections and order INEC to conduct fresh presidential elections.

*Only comes in if PO can not be declared absolute winner. Only LP n PDP will contest this*

I've taken my time to explain all this, as I can see most people are actually ignorant of what happened at the PEPT.

DMerciful:
That means you're not following the case. LP tendered evidences that the votes that INEC gave them in 21 states were not their votes but less. You expect th to make unnecessary arguments? They tendered evidences based on INEC own CTCs, its left for INEC to open defence next week and explain why they couldn't add the polling units results correctly.

You don't present witness to testify to support CTCs because they're INEC own CTCs.

DMerciful:
What is trash here?

Even if you want Tinubu, you can't call this trash, you should actually be worried because the evidences are overwhelming.

If you think a sworn in president cannot be removed, e go shock you when the judgement will be unanimous

Calm down with all these copy and paste. The respondents will open defense today. After dat u will now come back and delete dis shit.

"On the basis of the remaining votes (after discountenancing Tinubu and Shettima) , Obi scored majority of the lawful votes cast in 2/3rd of the States And the FCT, therefor met the requirements to be declared winner"

You were kind of making sense (I admit my bar is now very low considering what I read here daily) until you got to the above.

Atiku came second in the elections behind Tinubu. How exactly can he be second again when you discount Tinubu's votes?

Your summation goes against very basic principles of Mathematics.

seanfer:
It’s funny how people judge based on LP’s side. Why not wait till after the respondents Finnish their case?
Or you want the judge to give ruling based on only the witnesses and evidences of LP alone?

Atiku and Peter Obi have both closed their respective cases without proving how they won the election. So, the idea of the court declaring any of them the winner of the election is out of the equation.

This is just laughable. With all the barrage of evidence and CTCs? Lol

The second part of their plea is to get Tinubu disqualified on three grounds. Shettima’s so called double nomination that has now been thrashed by the Supreme Court.

That was a pre-election hearing. This is a post election hearing. There's no way out. A video was played in court on how Tinubu told Buhari 4days before the day they claim , that he has nominated Shettima. The only response from APC lawyers was asking if Buhari was still alive. Lol

25% of FCT that the two parties seems to have abandoned as they didn’t push this argument seriously. Even if they’ve pushed it, section 299 already made it clear FCT should be treated like a state so it won’t even matter.

This argument is only meant for the court to interpret. Nothing to push. No need for argument

The third argument is to get him disqualified by a combination of certificate forgery, dual citizenship and drug conviction.

Tinubu may escape the drug conviction, but he cannot escape perjury. It's so clear

The certificate forgery is of two nature. Chicago state university and NYSC. As regards Chicago state university, the University already issued a public statement that Bola Tinubu graduated from the University. That alone is enough to settle the matter. All the gymnastic about the color or font of certificate is nonsense.

The document presented by Tinubu's lawyers was a mere letter from a secretary in HOD office. The evidence presented against him was a transcript on subpoenas. Both are incomparable in terms of weight. It's like USA Vs Sao Tome

On NYSC, I would have expected Atiku’s legal team to subpoena NYSC to prove the authenticity of the certificate submitted by Tinubu but they failed to do that. So, how did they arrive at the conclusion that the certificate was forged? NYSC is the only authority that can confirm the authenticity or otherwise of an NYSC certificate.

It's the document itself that is challenging Tinubu. Already the document he presented was not his own as it didn't beat his name. So what's the point calling NYSC? You only call NYSC if it was forged with his name on it. Just like the case in Enugu

On the drug conviction issue, it is as empty as the lawyer PDP brought to as witness to prove the case. The witness simply helped PDP to ruin a case that was faulty right from the start. There was no criminal conviction or indictment in the forfeiture. The communication from the US government to the IGP already cleared him of all allegation.

I doubt that the drug may scale judgement. But it will affect his goodwill with the judges

Overall, Atiku and Peter Obi simply wasted everyone’s time. They had no case of rigging so they had to throw in a lot of allegations hoping one will stick. Sadly, they proved none. The two cases will be dismissed with heavy cost to the petitioners.

This is the response I expect from BATists and not insults.

The word discountenance has already explained it.

If you know algebra you will no that to discountenance an addition is to subtract, an vise versa. Many votes accrued to Tinubu were actually Peter Obi votes.

But it's just a simple logic for every Obidients to know that the court will still listen to the respondents before judgement is given... Most obidients don't even know how the court works and they are not ready to learn.
