Court orders service of petitions on Tinubu through his party, APC
The Presidential Election Petition Court sitting in Abuja, on Friday March 24 ordered the President-elect, Bola Tinubu should be served with copies of petitions seeking to nullify his election through substituted means
Vanguard reports that a 3-man panel of the court led by Justice Joseph Ikyegh, directed that the petitions should be served on Tinubu through his political party, APC
This comes after separate ex-parte applications that were brought before the court by the candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar & his counterpart in the Labour Party, Peter Obi
The duo accused Tinubu of deliberately avoiding the service of their petitions on him. They told the court that several attempts they made to effect service of the petitions on Tinubu proved ab%rtive
According to the petitioners, the President-elect deliberately made himself elusive with a view to fr¥strating their effort to hand him copies of the petition as required by the law
