Seven state governments of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), have withdrawn thier suit seeking the disqualification of Bola Tinubu, as President-elect.

The states are Adamawa, Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Delta, Edo, Taraba and Sokoto.

In the suit which had the Attorneys-General of the seven states as plaintiffs and the Attorney General of the Federation as defendant, the seven states asked the Supreme Court to intervene in the February 25 general election, claiming that the declaration of Tinubu did not follow the Electoral Act and INEC’s own laid down guidelines, particularly the uploading of results to the IREV through the BVAS.

However, the states, in a Notice of Discontinuance signed by the their lawyer, Mike Ozekhome, SAN, on Friday, said: Take notice that the plaintiffs doth hereby wholly discontinue this suit against the defendant herein.”
