Buhari vs Jonathan Latest: Supreme Court Upheld Goodluck Jonathan’s Victory

The Nigerian apex court, the Supreme Court, Wednesday morning, upheld the
election of President Goodluck Jonathan
and Vice President Namadi Sambo,
bringing to an end, eight months of
legal tussle.

The seven-man panel of the Supreme Court
unanimously agreed that Jonathan won the
election saying that the Congress for
Progressive Change, CPC failed to prove that
the election was marred with irregularities.
Justice Olufunlola Oyelola Adekeye read the
lead judgment.

It will be recalled that CPC and its presidential
candidate, Muhammadu Buhari went to court
to challenge the victory of President
Jonathan, claiming irregularities and massive
rigging by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP,
during the April election.
