The petitioners’ inability to demonstrate non-compliance, corrupt practises, and non-qualification against Tinubu, he claimed, rendered all of the petitions without merit.

“These petitions lack merit.

“The petitions are hereby dismissed.

“I hereby affirm the declaration of Tinubu by INEC,  as the duly elected president of Nigeria,” Tsammani held.

Justice Stephen Adah endorsed Tsammani’s lead decision.
