EXCLUSIVE: Embattled Nigerian Senate President, Lawan Heads To Supreme Court, Seeks ‘Ex-Minister Akpabio’s Treatment’ From Judges | Sahara Reporters

According to the court documents obtained by SaharaReporters on Monday, in the suit number FHC/DM/CS/11/2022, the APC is challenging the decision of the two lower courts that affirmed the candidature of Machina who won the May 28th primary election of the party.

He had also made efforts to convince APC presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, to prevail on Machina to withdraw which also did not work.SaharaReporters had on November 28, 2022, reported that the Court of Appeal in Abuja upheld the senatorial candidacy of Machina. President of the Court, Justice Monica Dongban-Mensem who delivered the judgement held that the lower court was right when it validated the May 28th APC senatorial primary election that produced Machina because it was duly monitored by INEC.

SaharaReporters earlier reported that Lawan; the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu and some key officials of the presidency were working round the clock to upturn the decision of the lower court using President Muhammadu Buhari's name to intimidate the Justices of the panel. It was also gathered that Lawan had asked the Chairman of the Senate Committee on Judiciary, Opeyemi Bamidele to undermine the budget of the Judiciary should the Justices refuse to do his bidding.
