July 20, (THEWILL) – The Court of Appeal, Abuja, has debunked reports that one of the members of the five-man panel of the Presidential Election Petitions Court (PEPC), Justice Boloukuoromo M. Ugo, has resigned.
A verified Twitter user, Umar Sani had tweeted on Thursday, that Justice Ugo resigned on the grounds that siding with President Bola Tinubu against those challenging his presidential victory at the court “would mean the death of Nigeria’s democracy.”
However, Secretary of the PEPC panel, Mrs Josephine J. Ekperobe, described the report as fake.
“All fake pls. Thank you”, Ekperobe told The Whistler on Thursday.
