Action Alliance party makes U-turn, withdraws petition against Tinubu

During a proceeding session at the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal, the Action Alliance (AA) political party withdrew its petition against Bola Tinubu, the president-elect of Nigeria, in a surprising move.

However, no explanation was given by Action Alliance for the sudden withdrawal on May 08, 2023, in Abuja, and the reason remains unclear.

A panel of judges, which includes the Chief Registrar of the Court of Appeal, Haruna Tsammani; Justice Stephen Adah of the Court of Appeal Asaba division; Justice Misitura Bolaji-Yusuf of the Court of Appeal in Asaba; Justice Boloukuoromo Ugoh of the Kano division, and Justice Abba Mohammed of the Ibadan Court of Appeal, will oversee various petitions to be heard.
