Peter Obi v. Tinubu: Presidential Tribunal decision to be broadcast on television 6 September

Subject to any unforeseen alterations, it is anticipated that the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal would broadcast its court proceedings on September 6, 2023.

The aforementioned information was revealed by Umar Bangari, who holds the position of Chief Registrar at the Abuja division of the Appeal Court.

According to Bangari, the choice to broadcast the concluding sessions would enhance transparency and foster an atmosphere of openness.

According to Bangari, there is a plan to enhance transparency and openness by televising these judgments live through interested television stations, so allowing the public to actively engage and follow the proceedings.

The Labour Party's presidential candidates, Peter Obi and Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), have lodged a legal challenge against the electoral triumph of President Bola Tinubu in the presidential election held on February 14th.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) officially announced the victory of Tinubu in the most recent presidential election.

However, Atiku and Obi leveled accusations against the Independent National election Commission (INEC), alleging bias towards Tinubu and involvement in election misconduct, which they believe contributed to the president's triumph.
