The Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPT) has announced readiness to deliver judgment on Wednesday, September 6th over Alhaji Atiku Abubakar (PDP) and Peter Obi (LP) petition.
Umar Bangari, Court of Appeal Registrar, confirmed this on Monday, saying the proceedings will be open to live broadcast by interested television stations.
Recall that the Labour Party (LP), the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), as well as their presidential candidates, had petitioned the tribunal seeking to nullify the declaration of President Bola Tinubu as the winner of the 2023 presidential election by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
Similarly, judgment is expected to be delivered by election tribunals in 25 states for governorship, National Assembly, and state assembly election petitions.
It was learnt that the results of the polls announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) are being contested in no fewer than 25 states out of the 28 states where elections were conducted.
