Nigerians React To INEC Claim Of Court Dismissal To Presidential Election Petition

Following the claim of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) asking the court to dismiss the Labour Party (LP) and its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, Presidential Election Petition, Nigerians has come back hard to respond to the claim through social media.

It was gathered that the commission prayed the court to either “dismiss or strike out the petition for being grossly incompetent, abusive, vague, nebulous, generic, general, non-specific, ambiguous, equivocal, hypothetical and academic.”

Responding to a petition filed before the Presidential Election Petitions Court (PEPC) in Abuja by the Action Peoples Party (APP) challenging the outcome of the 2023 presidential election, the electoral body has made its position known.

Reacting to the claims, a citizen said, “the fact that the APC and INEC are asking the court to nullify Peter Obi’s petition against Tinubu’s victory is both amusing and disturbing”.

“INEC did NOT Follow the Stipulated Electoral Law”

“It is alarming that INEC, which is supposed to be an independent and neutral entity, appears to be openly collaborating with the APC”. Nigerian said.

It was believed that INEC came fully prepared, as their response was so unexpected.
