Shock Over New Supreme Court Case To Remove Tinubu

Nigerians were on Monday morning mocking the news of a renewed legal action aimed at removing President Bola Tinubu from office by the Supreme Court.

A report by Vanguard noted that the case was instigated by a former presidential candidate, Chief Ambrose Owuru, who approached the Supreme Court to remove Tinubu from office on the claim of his lack of qualification for the post.

GWG.ng reports that the news of the renewed move to remove Tinubu from office by the Supreme Court has been mocked by many Nigerians as a near impossibility. There were also some who saw it as an attack against the Yoruba nation.

Many claimed the move to remove Tinubu as impossible given what many thought as the lack of moral fibre on the part of the Supreme Court. There were still some who were very hopeful. One X user recalling the turn around by Manchester United against premier league champion, Manchester City on Sunday night affirmed that nothing was impossible!

According to the Vanguard report, Owuru, who was the presidential flag-bearer of the Hope Democratic Party, HDP, in the 2019 general election, in the legal action he filed directly at the apex court, among other things, maintained that president Tinubu is an active agent of the Central Intelligence Agency, CIA, of the United States of America, USA, a position he said made him unifit to occupy the presidential seat.

The plaintiff equally urged the apex court to disqualify Tinubu on the account that he had earlier forfeited the sum of $460,000 to the government of the USA, in a drug related case.

He specifically prayed the Supreme Court to invoke section 157 of the 1999 Constitution, as amended, and oust Tinubu from office for being under the control of foreign authorities.

Besides, Owuru, whose political party, HDP, had since been re-registered by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, in his suit marked: SC/CV/667/2023, joined ex-President Muhammadu Buhari as a defendant in the matter.

According to the British-trained lawyer who was called to the Nigerian Bar in 1982, ex-President Buhari’s tenure was illegal.

Owuru alleged that though he was the valid winner of the 2019 presidential poll, Buhari highjacked his mandate and piloted affairs of the country for eight years.

He claimed that a suit he earlier lodged before the apex court to kick Buhari out of office, was technically jettisoned by the court due to a mix-up in the hearing dates.

Consequently, he argued that upon the disqualification of Tinubu for being unfit to hold the top job, the apex court should pronounce him as President and order his immediate inauguration to enable him reclaim his usurped mandate.

Same Supreme Court that affirmed Tinubu’s sham victory and confirmed him as the president of Nigeria in 2023, will decide his “fate” tomorrow, whether he will be “impeached” or still be left to be the president of NIGERIA?

Y’all should stop giving yourselves false hopes. If you guys want Tinubu out of office so bad, then clamor for electoral reform and vote him out in 2027, anything short of that, na play una dey play.

Make supreme Court getat!
