Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the February 25 presidential election, has strongly opposed the declaration of Bola Tinubu as Nigeria’s president, deeming it unlawful and unconstitutional.

He made these remarks in his final address while supporting his petition seeking the nullification of Tinubu’s victory.

7. The Department of State Services (DSS) re-arrested the suspended Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor, Godwin Emefiele, at the Federal High Court in Lagos.
