The Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) has granted the request of President-elect Asiwaju Bola Tinubu and his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), to inspect election materials from February 25.
On Wednesday, a three-member panel of the appeal court granted the reliefs sought by Tinubu and APC in their fourth motions ex-parte, with the exception of Tinubu’s prayers 5 and 6.
Meanwhile, Peter Obi, the Labour Party, LP presidential candidate, has urged his supporters not to use the court as a rallying point.
