 I am Olamide Ademi and this is the news now. The Court of Appeal in Abuja has dismissed a case by the People's Democratic Party PDP, seeking the disqualification of Balatunabu and Kashim Shatima as the presidential and vice presidential candidate of the all-progressive Congress in the February 2015 election. The PDP had urged the appellate court to reverse the January 13th judgement by Justice Young Air Corps of the Federal High Court in Abuja, which dismissed its suit on the grounds that the PDP liked Lekustandi to have instituted the suit. In the unanimous judgement, a three-member panel of the Court of Appeal led by Justice James Apodaga held that the PDP failed to establish its Lekustandi. Respondents in the appeal are the Independent's National Electoral Commission, INEC, the APC, Tinibu and Shatima. The judge also held that the trial court was right to have held that the PDP failed to establish its Lekustandi, the PDP which sought and ordered qualifying the APC, Tinibu and Shatima from contesting the presidential election scheduled for February 25th. Equally, PDP for an order nullifying their candidacy. It's for the PDP for an order compelling INEC to remove their names from its list of nominated sponsored candidates eligible to contest the election.
