Presidential candidate of the Peoples’ Democratic Party in Nigeria’s 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar, has accused the supreme court of legalising forgery, illegality, identity yheft, and perjury.

The former Vice President said this at a press briefing on Monday in Abuja.

He insisted that Bola Tinubu, was not qualified to contest the February 2023 presidential poll.

“Someone asked me, what would I do if I lost my election petition appeal at the Supreme Court. In response, I said that as long as Nigeria wins, the struggle would have been worthwhile.

“By that, I meant that the bigger loss will not be mine but Nigeria’s if the Supreme Court legitimises illegality, including forgery, identity theft, and perjury as it has done.

“If the Supreme Court, the highest court of the land, implies that crime is good and should be rewarded, then Nigeria is lost. I am sure that history will vindicate me.”

Atiku said when people lose confidence in the electoral process, democracy is on life support.

The PDP’s candidate also said he will not leave the political arena despite the Supreme Court verdict.

“As for me and my party, this phase of work is done. However, I am not going to go away, if you think I am going to go away, forget about it,

“For as long as I breathe, I will continue to struggle with other Nigerians to deepen our democracy. I will continue to work for the return of political and economical restructuring that the country needs,” he added.

On Thursday, the Justice John Okoro-led panel of the apex court threw out all the appeals by Atiku and Obi for lacking merit. The panel thereafter upheld electoral victory of Tinubu.
