The judgment, DAILY POST gathered will be virtual.<\/p>\n

The Tribunal had last week announced that the judgment had been fixed for Wednesday, April 21 before it was later fixed for today.<\/p>\n

According to some of the counsels in the case who craved anonymity, the notice of judgement was sent to them on Monday evening.<\/p>\n

They maintained that the reason for the virtual judgment was due to the ongoing strike by the judicial workers.<\/p>\n

Jegede is asking the tribunal to declare him winner of the October 10, 2020 governorship election in the State, which saw Akeredolu returning for a second term.<\/p>\n

According to Jegede in his petition, Akeredolu and his Deputy, Lucky Ayedatiwa were not validly nominated by the APC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
