The Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal on Wednesday ruled that President Bola Tinubu cannot be disqualified because of his forfeiture of narcotics money in the United States.
The court said Mr Tinubu was previously cleared by the Nigeria Police Force of any criminal issues in the U.S., which came through an inquiry the police had made to the U.S. law enforcement.
According to the court, Mr. Tinubu has been able to enter and exit the United States, indicating that he has no criminal case.
