Atiku, Mr Obi and the APM all filed separate appeals to challenge the decision of the court which affirmed President Tinubu's election.

A seven-member panel of the Supreme Court will today hear the appeals by Atiku Abubakar, and Peter Obi challenging the judgement of the Presidential Election Petition Court which affirmed President Bola Tinubu's election.

The appellants also raised the issue of Mr Tinubu's inability to secure 25 per cent of valid votes cast in Abuja during the polls. Another key bone of contention before the seven-member panel of the Supreme Court is Mr Tinubu's academic records which were obtained from the Chicago State University in October by Atiku.
