Atiku Abubakar, the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has filed a petition to challenge the declaration of Bola Tinubu, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), as the winner of the presidential election.

The Cable reports that the petition marked CA/PEPC/05/2023 was filed before the presidential election petition tribunal by Atiku’s lawyers on Tuesday, March 21.

In the petition, Atiku argued that Tinubu was not qualified to contest the election.

The PDP candidate also asked the tribunal to nullify Tinubu’s victory and withdraw the certificate of return issued to him.
