Federal High Court, Abuja, on Monday, dismissed the suit seeking to challenge former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar’s eligibility to contest for 2023 Presidency.

Justice Ekwo described the plaintiff as “busy body and meddlesome interloper.”
A group, an Incorporated Trustees of Egalitarian Mission for Africa (EMA), in a suit marked: FHC/ABJ/CS/177/2019 had sued Atiku, PDP, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) as 1st to 4th respondents, respectively.
The group challenged Atiku’s eligibility to contest for presidency on the grounds that he’s not a Nigerian citizen by birth.
