Supreme Court To Deliver Final Judgment In Atiku, Obi’s Petitions Against Tinubu’s Victory Tomorrow; Tight Security Measures Put In Place

By Akeem Oduyoye

The Supreme Court has finally fixed tomorrow, Thursday, October 26, to deliver final judgments in the two petitions challenging the victory of President Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressive Congress(APC) as winner of the 2023 presidential poll.

They are the petitions filed by the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, and his counterpart in the Labour Party(LP), Peter Obi.

The Supreme Court’s Director of the Press and Information, Dr Awemeri Festus Akande, confirmed the development on Wednesday.

He said adequate security arrangements have been put in place to prevent security breaches both within and outside the court premises.

Recall that a seven-man panel of Justices of the Court led by Justice John Inyang Okoro had on Monday taken final arguments from lawyers to parties in the petitions.

The Justices thereafter reserved their judgments.
