Ibe’s statement alleged that the APC intended to coerce the judges involved in the petition, prompting him to call for international attention to the matter. In response, the APC dismissed Atiku Abubakar’s claims as “arrant nonsense totally lacking in substance and cogency.”

The ruling party firmly stated that the opposition candidate had failed to establish a strong case in court and deemed his tactics as a “childish attempt” to save face. The APC emphasized its full confidence in the judiciary’s ability to deliver electoral justice in accordance with the constitution and applicable laws.

The statement released by the APC read, “Atiku Abubakar and his minions offered no evidence to support their wild, hollow, and mischievous allegations. Quite frankly, there is nothing in Atiku Abubakar’s statement that is worth a reaction from the APC. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and our party won the election convincingly.”
