    In a significant ruling, the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal has dismissed the petition filed by Peter Obi and the Labour Party (LP) challenging the requirement to obtain 25% of the votes in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) in order to win a presidential election.

The tribunal has affirmed that citizens of the FCT do not receive special privileges compared to other states in this regard.
