The All Progressives Congress and its presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, on Tuesday, 28th February 2023 has filed a lawsuit to prevent moves by the Labour Party and the People’s Democratic Party to the ongoing collation of Saturday’s presidential election results.
The suit was marked FHC/KN/CS/43/2023 and filed before the Federal High Court in Kano.
The Action Alliance and the Independent National Electoral Commission were joined as defendants while the APC vice presidential candidate, Kashim Shettima, was also listed as a plaintiff.
According to report, the plaintiffs in a motion on notice filed alongside the originating summons asked the court to make the order restraining the defendants from stopping the collation and announcement of the results.
The party said, “damages will not adequately compensate for the injury that may be occasioned on the Plaintiffs if by the Defendants stop the collation of the result.”
