Presidential Tribunal: Tinubu's supporters to disrupt proceedings? Details emerge

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu President Bola Ahmed Tinubu

An alarm has been raised by the camp of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that supporters of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu are plotting to disrupt proceedings of the ongoing presidential election petition tribunal.

The special assistant to Atiku Abubakar on public communication, Phrank Shuaibu, raised the alarm in a statement obtained by Legit.ng on Sunday, July 9.

As contained in the statement, he warned supporters of President Tinubu and the All Progressive Congress not to attempt to disrupt the legal proceedings at the presidential tribunal.

He stated that the warning was necessary following the sponsored protest that Tinubu’s supporters staged at Abuja’s European Union (EU) head office.

The protest was on the heels of the EU post-election report that disclosed that the 2023 presidential election was marred with electoral fraud and violence. The report criticised the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and how it conducted the election that produced President Bola Tinubu.
