Supreme Court to broadcast judgement on 2023 presidential election live
The Supreme Court of Nigeria will broadcast its judgment on the appeals brought by Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi, challenging the affirmation of President Bola Tinubu’s victory in the February 25 presidential election live.
The decision to broadcast the judgment was approved by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Olukayode Ariwoola.
Atiku, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and Obi, his counterpart in the Labour Party (LP), are challenging the September 6 judgment of the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPC), which upheld Tinubu’s election.
They had taken their cases to the apex court after the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) upheld Tinubu’s victory.
But not satisfied, Atiku and Obi headed to the Supreme Court with all parties involved confirming a Wednesday date for the delivery of judgment.
During the Supreme Court’s last seeking, it had reserved judgment on the appeals filed by the duo against the verdict of the Presidential Election Petition Court which affirmed Tinubu’s victory in the presidential election.
A seven-member panel of the court, led by Justice Inyang Okoro confirmed this after counsels to parties adopted their briefs of argument and made final submissions.
Ahead of Thursday’s judgment, the premises of the Supreme Court were beaming with activities as politicians, top government dignitaries, and the media, among others, trooped in for the verdict.
