Supreme court dismisses pdp atikus appeal against buharis re election

I think there may be some confusion here. The Supreme Court of Nigeria did not dismiss the appeal of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its candidate, Atiku Abubakar, against the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2019 presidential election.

In fact, the Supreme Court upheld the election of President Buhari as the winner of the 2019 presidential election in a judgment delivered on February 13, 2020. The court dismissed the appeal filed by the PDP and Atiku Abubakar, who had challenged the outcome of the election at the tribunal and the Court of Appeal.

The Supreme Court's judgment was based on its finding that the petitioners failed to prove their allegations of irregularities and non-compliance with the Electoral Act during the election. The court also held that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had conducted the election in accordance with the law.

It's worth noting that the Supreme Court's judgment was not without controversy, with many critics arguing that the court's decision was influenced by political considerations and that the election was marred by irregularities and fraud. However, the court's decision was final and binding, and it has been the subject of much debate and analysis in Nigeria and beyond.
