25% Requirement: FCT Not Special Than Other States – Tribunal by Goodmorning20(op): 4:22pm On Sep 06, 2023
The Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal has declared that the Federal Capital Territory does not hold a higher status than other states in the country.

Justice Haruna Tsammani, the lead judge of the five-man panel declared this during the tribunal’s sitting on Wednesday in Abuja.

According to him, Section 134 (1) and (2) of the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria (as amended) stipulates that a presidential candidate must attain or score a majority of votes cast in a presidential election, where two or more candidates are involved, and at least 25% in two-thirds of the 36 States and FCT to meet the constitutional requirement to be declared as duly elected as President of Nigeria.

The parliament my make sure that we everything must be done transmitted electronically at the next election, otherwise we must make sure they return all their allowances since they don't want to modernise our election process. We must learn from this election and make changes.

If stupidity is not someone's middle name, how can one believe that vote of Abuja can equal or be more valued than the rest of the states?


Beer parlour lawyers will not allow us to rest with propaganda.

I wonder why Obidients believed they could hoodwink the judiciary. Abuja could never be a super state.

We have spent 6 months explaining to Obidients that Elections were different from the Osu Caste System and that Abuja voters were not a master Race

We explained to them but they refused to listen. Now they’ve been left behind.
