The Supreme Court has dismissed the application of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Atiku Abubakar, to present the Chicago State University academic records of President Bola Tinubu as fresh evidence.

“I still wonder how the appellant intends to use the document in this proceeding,” Okoro said, adding that the Presidential Election Petition Court did not see any certificate forgery allegations in his petition.

“It is shocking to have Atiku’s lawyer argue in print that there is no statutory time limit of 180 days for the lower court to decide a presidential election petition,” Okoro held.
