JUST IN: Supreme Court’s Crucial Ruling in Atiku’s Motion

The Supreme Court is poised to deliver a ruling on a pivotal motion by Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, seeking to submit fresh evidence, specifically the Chicago State University records of President Bola Tinubu. This momentous occasion is taking place under the vigilant watch of heightened security measures.

Heavy security personnel are maintaining a strong presence in and around the Supreme Court, as well as on the adjacent roads leading to and from the venue. Access to the premises has been restricted to only accredited individuals, with cameramen from media houses initially denied entry.

From the Secretariat down to the Supreme Court junction and the main auditorium, a combination of security forces, including the Police and the Department of State Security (DSS), are overseeing the area and permitting only authorized personnel and journalists into the courtroom.

The judgment, which has been eagerly anticipated, stems from the petition filed by Mr. Peter Obi and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar against President Bola Tinubu. Justice Inyang Okoro and a panel of six other esteemed justices at the apex court have been tasked with the responsibility of delivering this crucial verdict.

The seven-man panel includes Uwani Abaji, Lawal Garba, Ibrahim Saulawa, Adamu Jauro, Tijani Abubakar, and Emma Agim. This ruling is set to shape the future of this high-stakes legal battle.
