Earlier on Monday, the Registrar of the Court of Appeal, Umar Bangari, announced that the Tribunal would deliver judgments on the cases challenging Tinubu’s victory in the February 25, 2023 election, where he ran as the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate.
Tinubu’s election is being contested by Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and the Allied Peoples Movement (APM).
