Why I asked Justice Bulkachuwa to withdraw from presidential election tribunal - Atiku - Premium Times Nigeria

The main opposition candidate in the February presidential election, Atiku Abubakar, has explained his decision to request that the President of the Court of Appeal, Zainab Bulkachuwa, withdraws from the presidential election petition tribunal.

On Wednesday, the tribunal ruled against Mr Abubakar and the PDP. It said both parties could not prove the possibility of bias against the judge and that Mrs Bulkachuwa’s husband was not a party to the suit. In his statement sent to PREMIUM TIMES early on Thursday, Mr Abubakar said his “legal team’s objection was not a reflection on Justice Bulkachuwa’s character or competence.”

My legal team’s objection was not a reflection on Justice Bulkachuwa’s character or competence. As a matter of fact, I have great respect for her, being a pioneer and advocate for gender equality and female empowerment.

Narcissism is a terrible ailment! Keep hauling Missiles from your Glass Houses, sir! Hmmm!

Have u forgotten that Supreme Court Justices Odili, KekereEkun and Viva Rhodes are spouses to PDP chieftains? Digging holes down for ursef 😔

The case was declared unmeritorious . However the eminent jurist honorably refused herself. Kudos Justice Bulkachuwa, the doyen of our judiciary. Now light would be on Justices M.Odili (Jsc) former first lady of Rivers State and Wike currently rivers 1st lady both of pdp mamas

He is just doing the right thing...

Failed Dubai strategy .. Better reconcile with MBuhari or else we go drain all our Commonwealth that made u Trilllioniare or we shot down all ur coys from Intel to AU MBuhari OfficialPDPNig OfficialAPCNg
