The Presidential Election Petition Tribunal in Abuja will on
Wednesday deliver judgment in the case instituted by the Peoples
Democratic Party and its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar,
challenging the outcome of the February 23, 2019 election.
The petitioners asked the five-man tribunal led by Justice Mohammed
Garba to nullify President Buhari’s victory at the poll and either
declare them the winner or order the Independent National Electoral
Commission to conduct a rerun.
A senior member of the petitioners’ legal team, Mike Ozekhome (SAN),
confirmed to our correspondent that the hearing notice for the judgment
had been served on lawyers representing the parties to the case on
Tuesday.
“I can confirm to you that the judgment will be delivered 9am tomorrow (Wednesday),” Ozekhome said.
