On Monday, a 7-man panel of Justices of the Court led by Justice John Inyang Okoro reserved their judgement and promised to communicate the judgement date to the involved parties.
The Supreme Court’s Director of the Press and Information, Dr Awemeri Festus Akande, has now confirmed the date. He said adequate security arrangements have been put in place to prevent security breaches both within and outside the court premises on Thursday.
