A support group of Bola Tinubu, Nigeria’s president-elect, have arrived at the Supreme Court in Abuja ahead of Friday’s judgement on a suit seeking Mr Tinubu’s disqualification as a presidential candidate and his scheduled swearing-in as president on 29 May.
The group comprising young people gathered at the Bullet Junction near the Supreme Court.
A Niger Delta ex-militant, Asari Dokubo, was seen among the group.
Mr Dokubo who has been a vocal supporter of the president-elect, sat on a rock while the protesters were gyrating around him.
The demonstrators carried placards declaring their support for Mr Tinubu.
“On Bola Tinubu mandate we stand,” one of the placards read.
