BREAKING: Supreme Court to Broadcast Judgment 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.
The PEPC had dismissed the petitions filed by Atiku and Obi, ruling that they failed to prove their allegations of electoral irregularities and malpractice.
However, the two candidates have argued that the PEPC erred in its judgment and are seeking the Supreme Court to set it aside and declare them the winners of the election.
