BREAKING: Alleged Double Nomination: Supreme Court Rejects PDP’s Suit Against Tinubu, Shettima
The suit filed by the People’s Democratic Party’s (PDP) against President Elect, Bola Tinubu and Vice, Kassim Shettima has been rejected by the Supreme Court, concurring that the PDP lacked the legal standing to bring the case forward.
While delivering the judgment, Justice Adamu Jauro expressed the court’s agreement that the PDP had interfered as an unauthorised party, characterising their involvement as that of an unnecessary meddler.
The court emphasised that the matter at hand was an internal affair of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and thus beyond the jurisdiction of the PDP.
Notably, the PDP has been ordered to pay a sum of Two Million Naira, even though the lawsuit itself was dismissed on the grounds of lacking merit.
The justices further denounced the PDP’s conduct, accusing them of intentionally misleading the court and expressing their disappointment with such tactics, deeming them “regrettable.”

Judge Expels Kanu from courtroom
As the court prepared to deliver judgment, Kanu objected, insisting he had not filed his final written address.
Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court this morning, ordered Nnamdi Kanu out of the courtroom for unruly behaviour midway through Thursday’s proceedings.
The trial judge is set to deliver judgment in a case spanning ten years.
The judge had earlier dismissed three fresh motions filed by Kanu, ruling them unmeritorious.
As the court prepared to deliver judgment, Kanu objected, insisting he had not filed his final written address.
He raised his voice, accused the judge of bias, and declared that the court “did not know the law.”
Following the outburst, security operatives escorted Kanu from the courtroom. Justice Omotosho is now set to proceed with reading the final judgment in the long‑running terrorism case.
