Court Rules On Buhari’s Petition Challenging Atiku’s Nationality by AgencyReport(op): 1:43pm On Sep 11, 2019
The Presidential Tribunal has dismissed President Muhammadu Buhari’s petition, alleging that Atiku Abubakar was a Cameroonian, Igbere TV reports.

Igbere TV reports that the five-man panel tribunal, Tuesday, held that the petition was “diversionary”, “incompetent” and “lacked merit”.

The Tribunal also ruled that Buhari and the APC ought to have filed a Cross-Appeal to query Atiku’s eligibility to contest the February 23 presidential election.

Igbere TV recalls that Buhari and his party, APC, had contested that Atiku was not qualified to challenge his re-election since he was not a Nigerian by birth.

That's not what the tribunal said.

They only claimed it should have been its own petition.
