JUST IN: TINUBU’LL BE INAUGURATED PRESIDENT ON MAY 29, BUT’LL RULE FOR ONLY SIX MONTHS — INTERSOCIETY PROJECTS

Leading rights group, the International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law (Intersociety), has said that President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, would be successfully inaugurated on May 29 but would be sacked by the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal after about six months.

The group made the prediction, on Monday, in a statement issued, in Onitsha, Anambra State.

The group also advised the Chief Justice of the Federation (CJN), Justice Olukayode Ariwoola, “to recuse himself from the headship of the PEPT on moral grounds so as to avoid conflict of interest” in view of his alleged affinity with Tinubu.

Signed by Intersociety Board Chair Emeka Umeagbalasi; Head, Contacts and Mobilisation Department, Ositadinma Agu; and Head, International Justice and Human Rights, Ndidiamaka Chinaza Bernard Esquire, the statement reads in full:

“It is the unbiased position of the International Society for Civil Liberties and Rule of Law (Intersociety) that by the provisions of the Nigeria’s body of laws including the Constitution of Nigeria 1999 as amended and democratic and limited Government conventions under the UN, AU and ECOWAS Systems, applicable and operable in Nigeria, the INEC-declared ‘President-elect’: Alhaji Ahmed Bola Tinubu will be inaugurated on 29th May 2023 as “INEC-declared President of Nigeria”. Possibility is also high that Nigeria will produce three civilian Presidents in eleven months of 2023 or between January-May 29 (Buhari/Osinbajo), May 29-Oct/Nov (Ahmed Tinubu) and Oct/Nov and afterwards (Obi or Atiku).

“Intersociety does not see the third option arising or materializing-which is nullification of the poll by the apex court version of the PEPT (Presidential Election Petitions’ Tribunal) and assumption of the interim presidency by the Senate President.

“This is because with the 2023 Presidential Poll having witnessed massive voting in most of the country’s 176,846 polling units, but was brutally rigged in-house across the country and witnessed Ward, LGA and State Result Collation Centers’ results’ suppression; the main business of the PEPT is to locate those living votes through polling units’ FormEC8As, etc backed by originally uploaded results in INEC servers and BVAS and validly determine which party/candidate scored the highest number of legitimate votes and constitutionally required 25% spread in constitutionally prescribed number of States and FCT.
