Presidential Election Petition Tribunal Gives September 6 As Judgment Day

The Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) has finally said it expects to deliver it’s judgment on the 2023 Presidential Election Petition, Wednesday, September 6th.

According to Channels Television, it was the Court of Appeal Registrar, Umar Bangari, that confirmed this to the media station on Monday, also saying “the proceedings will be open to live broadcast by interested television stations.”

It would be recalled that 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.

“Judgement 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,” the report said.
