Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and the African Democratic Congress (ADC) ask the Federal High Court in Abuja for permission to amend their lawsuit against President Bola Tinubu and the All Progressives Congress (APC). The request is made for the court to allow changes to the existing case brought by the plaintiffs.
Both outlets report that the underlying case challenges Tinubu and the APC, and that the plaintiffs seek court approval before proceeding with amended claims. Daily Post Nigeria adds that the action is pursued ahead of the 2027 presidential election and characterizes the suit as aimed at disqualifying Tinubu and the APC from contesting. Vanguard does not provide additional specifics beyond the request to amend the suit against Tinubu and the APC.
