Scoring 25% of votes in FCT not mandatory, Supreme Court rules
The Supreme Court has agreed with the Court of Appeal that the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, is like other states.
The presiding justice of the panel, John Okoro, asked, “Are you saying if someone scores 25% votes in 30 states but not in Abuja, he should not be president? Is that how you interpret the law?
“That is not the law. Supreme Court agrees with the Court of Appeal,” he added.
