A Federal High Court in Abuja has set October 13, 2026, for hearing a case filed by presidential candidate Alhaji Atiku Abubakar against President Bola Tinubu and the APC. The suit challenges Tinubu's eligibility for the 2027 general election, alleging that Tinubu submitted a forged certificate to INEC in 1999 when he first ran for Lagos State Governor.
The plaintiffs, including Atiku and the ADC, argue that Tinubu and APC must be disqualified from the 2027 election due to constitutional breaches. The court granted the plaintiffs' motion to serve President Tinubu the court documents via the APC.
