The All Progressives Congress (APC) and its 2019 presidential candidate, President Muhammadu Buhari, on Wednesday, August 21, informed the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) that Atiku Abubakar has not denied claims by the party that he is not Nigerian.

Making their final submissions before the tribunal the APC and President Buhari prayed the court to dismiss petition by Abubakar and the Peoples Democratic Party against the results of the 2019 presidential election, Igbere TV reports.

Speaking before the tribunal, counsel to the president, Wole Olanipekun, said the petition brought before the tribunal by the PDP and Atiku failed to lead any reasonable evidence to support their claim.

Olanipekun said the petitioners who have claimed that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had a server with which it worked with to deliver the election results, they have failed to identify it and show the court where it is located.

Also speaking, Lateef Fagbemi, counsel to the APC said all issues raised against Atiku’s qualification to contest for allegedly not being a Nigerian by birth, were not challenged by either Atiku himself or the PDP. “On the qualification of the first petitioners (Atiku). In spite of all we put before the court, they provided nothing to the contrary."

“What we need is minimal proof. Nothing was put forward in the petitioners’ written address to counter this. And, I must commend them, because they have nothing to offer," Fagbemi said. He said the third respondent has discharge the burden on that and that the issue of the 1st petitioner’s non-qualification is effectively dealt with in the APC's written address.

“To fault INEC’s position, they have the burden to show substantial non-compliance. They failed to do this. The implication therefore, is that there was substantial compliance with the Electoral Act in the conduct of the last presidential election,”‎ Fagbemi added.

1. Atiku is a Nigerian. He became a Nigerian when his region (Northern Cameroon) became part of Nigeria on 1 June, 1961, through a referendum. People are trying to muddy the waters but whether a person became Nigerian via territorial change, naturalization, or whatever, they are Nigerian and thus eligible for elections, subject to the other requirements in the Constitution. I'm not debating whether he is a worthy candidate or whatever, just that he has been Nigerian since 1961.

2. There is currently no sovereign country called Biafra, thus this second point is not even valid for argument.

If you are not born a Nigerian, you cannot contest to be president.

Reason for the Obama birth certificate scandal

From when PDP failed to provide enough evidence of the server and their witnesses couldn't even defend their claims I already knew this case has no headway anymore.
The painful thing is that they will still head to Supreme Court again. What I really don't understand, is there an arrangement we don't know about that pays funds to oppositions for election court issues? Because I can't understand why these politicians keep going to court even when it is so glaring that they will loose the case.

The constitution says before you can become the president, you must be a Nigerian by birth, question you should be asking is, is Atiku a Nigerian by birth?
Read up the constitution to know who qualifies as a Nigerian by birth.
