Nigeria court calls witnesses in election challenge

A court in the Nigerian capital, Abuja, has started calling witnesses as it considers a petition against President Bola Tinubu’s victory in the February elections, according to reports.

The opposition Labour Party says it is presenting additional material to support its argument that the poll was rigged.

Opposition lawyers are also submitting documents which they say show that Mr Tinubu made a settlement with the United States authorities after he had been investigated for involvement in drug trafficking.

He was never personally charged and has denied any wrongdoing.
