There was drama at the Supreme Court on Monday as presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party , Atiku Abubakar, asked the court to admit fresh evidence of forgery against President Bola Tinubu.
Speaking through his lead counsel, Chris Uche , Atiku described the matter as a grave and constitutional matter.“The issue involving Mr Tinubu’s certificate is a weighty, grave, and constitutional one, which the Supreme Court should admit. I urge the court to admit the fresh evidence of President Tinubu’s academic records from CSU presented by Atiku,” he said.
“The Supreme Court must take a look at Mr Tinubu’s records and reach a decision devoid of technicality.” Counsel to the Independent National Electoral Commission , Abubakar Mahmoud, immediately asked the Supreme Court to dismiss Atiku’s application seeking to present Tinubu’s academic records. Tinubu’s lead counsel, Wole Olanipekun , argued that INEC should have been a party at the deposition proceedings in the US, noting that the CSU depositions are dormant until the deponent comes to court and testify.JUST IN: Lagos state government seals Alaba International Market
