The Federal High Court Abuja, has dismissed a suit seeking to disqualify former President Goodluck Jonathan from participating in the 2027 presidential election.

The court described the case as an abuse of court process and subsequently struck it out.

In its ruling, the court awarded a cost of ₦20 million against the plaintiff in favour of Jonathan.

The court also ordered the plaintiff to pay an additional ₦1 million cost in favour of the Attorney-General of the Federation.

I don't know why we are moving back and forth in what doesn't really bother us.

One musician once sang:

Na so yanga de sleep,

Go pay your fine and that for the Attorney General. Next time you go think before you do.

It's not the same.
GEJ's case has been litigated on before in 2022.

The law is not retroactive, meaning he had already benefitted before the law was amended. Whilst he enjoys same, the Ondo Governor does not because his own case was after the law had been amended.

The law was signed into law in June 2018.

GEJ!

The president who made Nigerian economy the best in Africa 🌍 and one of the fastest growing economies in the world 🌎 during his tenure.

Unfortunately, these mofos in power used propaganda against him and have now turned the country into an international laughing stock.
