Former Governor of Lagos state and a one time Nigeria Minister for Works and Housing Babatunde Raji Fashola has written a petition to the Department of State Service (DSS) over a publication by Pointblanknews.com publisher, Jackson Ude on his social media platform Twitter now known as X, where he wrote, “EXPOSED: “FASHOLA IS WRITING PEPT JUDGMENT FOR JUDGES.
The US based journalist had alleged that Babatunde Fashola and some APC lawyers are writing the judgment Bola Tinubu and APC intend to hand over to the Presidential Elections Petition Tribunal, PEPT, to adopt.
Fashola who is alleged to have supervised the rigging of the 2023 Presidential election in favor of Tinubu, was also alleged to have written the judgment for Judges in the 2019 election Tribunal that sealed Mohammadu Buhari Presidential election victory.
The former Lagos Governor has remained quiet since after the elections but have been keeping close tabs with Judges handling the Presidential elections petition.
The Election Tribunal has adopted all final address but yet to announce a date for judgement. Fashola, according to informants, is working day and night to conclude his proposed judgement and hand over to the PEPT Judges.
The Judges aside monetary compensations, have been promised elevation to the Supreme Court should they accept Fashola’s version.”
