Court Fixes Date In Jonathan Eligibility Case
The Federal High Court in Abuja has fixed May 26 for judgment in a suit challenging the eligibility of former President Goodluck Jonathan to contest the 2027 presidential election.
The case centres on whether he is legally qualified to run again under Nigeria’s constitution and electoral laws.
The matter, which has drawn public attention, was brought before the court to determine Jonathan’s political standing ahead of the next general elections.
Arguments from both sides have already been presented, with the court now set to deliver its decision.
The ruling is expected to clarify long-standing debates around Jonathan’s eligibility after previously serving as president.
Political observers say the outcome could shape early discussions around the 2027 presidential race.
The court’s decision on May 26 will be closely watched by political stakeholders and supporters across the country as preparations for the election season continue.
