Some supporters of President Bola Tinubu, under the aegis of Niger Delta for Tinubu, have stormed the premises of the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal (PEPT) in Abuja.

The pro-Tinubu supporters, dressed in branded black and red attire, arrived at the Court of Appeal premises around 7 a.m. on Wednesday, holding placards, singing, and dancing.

Inscriptions on the placards said, ‘Niger Deltans stand with the mandate given to BAT by over 200 million Nigerians’, ‘President Tinubu loves Niger Delta’, and ‘Thank you Tinubu for restoring the Niger Delta Ministry’.

Naija Latest Gist reports that the supporters of the President, who are mostly youths, were led to the tribunal by a former militant and an ally of President Bola Tinubu, Asari Dokubo.

The much-anticipated ruling of the tribunal on the outcome of the 2023 presidential election will be delivered today, Wednesday, 6th September 2023, by the panel of tribunal judges.

Apart from that, the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) also challenged Tinubu’s victory.

Recall that the Registrar of the Court of Appeal, Umar Bangari, on Monday, confirmed in a statement that judgment on the outcome of the 2023 presidential election would be delivered by the Tribunal today, Wednesday.

The statement noted that all the judgments would be televised live however, access to the court premises would be strictly on accreditation as only accredited individuals, lawyers, and representatives of political parties would be allowed into the courtroom.

The Lagos State police have arrested a 47-year-old man, identified as Emmanuel Chukwuma, for stabbing his 45-year-old girlfriend, Bosede Adefehinti, to death on 7th Avenue, Festac.

Naija Latest Gist learnt that the suspect, popularly known as Oliver on the street, and the deceased have been living together as boyfriend and girlfriend.

An eyewitness who spoke to Vanguard said it was not the first time the lovers had issues, adding that an inferiority complex on the part of the man had caused the fight.

He said, “Yesterday around 2:30 pm, Oliver stabbed his girlfriend, and after stabbing her, he tried to kill himself by jumping into the well, but we stopped him and called the police.

“They are not married, and this is not the first time they have had issues, but yesterday’s was beyond anything before.

“What I believe caused the fight was an inferiority complex on the man’s part because he has no job and helps his girlfriend sell herbal medicines, popularly known as Agbo—a concoction prepared from a variety of herbs.

“So most times, when he’s selling, the girlfriend leaves the shop while he remains there, sometimes receiving banter from the customers.”

Confirming the incident, the Lagos State Police Spokesman, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, said the suspect has been arrested, and the case file will be transferred to the Homicide section, Panti.

He said, “At about 3:10 pm, a distress call was received that one Emmanuel Chukwuma, aged 47 years, stabbed his girlfriend, Bosede Adefehinti, aged 45 years, to death.

“Immediately, detectives and a patrol team visited the scene of the crime. The suspect was arrested from the well where he hid.

“Photographs were taken while waiting for Lagos State health staff for the possible evacuation of the corpse to the mortuary.

“Meanwhile, the case file will be transferred to the Homicide section, Panti.”
