Supreme Court Dismisses APM’s Appeal Against Tinubu’s Election by AnonPoet(op): 11:32am On Oct 23, 2023
The Supreme Court has dismissed the appeal filed by the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) challenging the nomination of Kashim Shettima as the Vice Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the last presidential election.
A seven-member panel, headed
by Justice John Okoro pronounced the dismissal of the appeal after the appellant’s lawyer, Chukwuma Majukwu Umeh applied to withdraw it.

Members of the panel had, at the mention of the appeal, noted that it was frivolous because the Supreme Court had, in an earlier case of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) v. INEC and others, resolved this issue that Shettima was properly nominated.

Justice Okoro pointedly asked Umeh what he thought his client would benefit from the outcome of the case if not only to further overburden the court.



Umeh had made efforts to distinguish his client’s case from that if the PDP v. INEC and others, but later had a change of mind when the Justice Okoro insisted that the appeal lacked any utilitarian value.

After scolding from s’court, APM withdraws appeal against Tinubu
The supreme court has dismissed the appeal filed by the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) seeking to void the election of President Bola Tinubu.

The appeal was dismissed after Chukwuma Umeh, APM counsel, applied to withdraw the suit.

The justices had scolded APM’s counsels for bringing an appeal that had previously been decided by the apex court.

huh

As far as I'm concerned, the case has been cancelled long before now..

Let everybody just brace up for the next 3years, let allow the president to do his complete 4years and see if he will be given more time or not...

All these court distraction, won't do the country good, we know that courts will always be in favour of the incumbent government anyway anytime...

Only a daft mind would be expecting justice in a backward country like Nigeria where the judicial system has since been bought over.

We all expected something like this but I still commend them for dragging him to court let him know that we're not fools.

U may remain the president via hook and crook but you'll never have legitimacy or love of the people you're heading. If that's victory for you then we leave you to your conscience (if u have one). Posterity will judge
