Barring any last minute hiccups, the trio of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), in the last presidential election, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Mr Peter Obi of the Labour Party will get the verdict of the Presidential Election Petition Court (PEPT) on Wednesday, September 6, 2023.
The Court of Appeal Registrar Umar Bangari confirmed this in a statement.
He said the proceedings would be open to live broadcast by interested television stations.
The Labour Party (LP), the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), as well as their presidential candidates, had petitioned the tribunal seeking to nullify the election of President Bola Tinubu as the winner of the 2023 presidential election.
Judgment is also expected to be delivered by election tribunals in 25 states for governorship, National Assembly, and state assembly election petitions.
The results of the polls announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) are being contested in no fewer than 25 states out of the 28 states where elections were conducted.
