Atiku, PDP ask Court to dismiss Wike’s suit
The People’s Democratic Party, its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal, have asked a Federal High Court in Abuja to dismiss a suit allegedly instituted by Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State challenging the last presidential primary election of the party.
Atiku, PDP and Tambuwal informed the court that Wike’s suit was “frivolous, baseless, unwarranted and unknown to law”.
Wike had allegedly dragged the PDP, Atiku and Tambuwal to court over the conduct of the presidential primary of the party held in Abuja on May 28 and May 29, 2022.
Atiku, PDP and Tambuwal also stated that the suit as brought by the applicants does not fall within the purview of Section 84 of the Electoral Act, as such does not qualify as a preelection dispute.
