A Federal High Court in Abuja has dismissed a suit seeking to sack President Muhammadu Buhari from office, OduNews reports.
The suit was instituted by a former presidential candidate of the Hope Democratic Party, Chief Ambrose Owuru, against the election of President Buhari in 2019.
The suit was dismissed by Justice Inyang Ekwo on three grounds which include that the suit constituted a gross abuse of court process, it was statute-barred, and was an affront to the Supremacy of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
Justice Ekwo also held that the suit was baseless, frivolous, and vexatious in its entirety.
The plaintiff, Owuru had in the suit applied for an order of the court to declare the presidential seat vacant and swear him in as the authentic winner of that election.
