Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has
inaugurated his legal team to challenge the outcome of the presidential
election.
Atiku had
secured 11,262,978 votes and lost to Buhari, who polled 15,191,847 votes on the
platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
A statement
issued on Saturday by Paul Ibe, his media aide, noted that the legal team would
be headed by Dr. Livy Uzoukwu (SAN).
He said: “I
have just inaugurated my legal team and charged them with the responsibility of
ensuring that our stolen mandate is retrieved.
“I am
encouraged by the presence of fearless men and women of the Bench. The
judiciary, which had in the past discharged itself ably, is once again being
called upon to deliver judgement on this matter that will be untainted by lucre
and uncowed by the threat of immoral power."
