According to the media house, the “Court of Appeal Registrar Umar Bangari confirmed September 6 to Channels Television on Monday.“
It quoted Bangari as saying that the proceedings will be open to live broadcast by interested television stations.

The television station added that judgement is also expected to be delivered by election tribunals in 25 states for governorship, National Assembly, and state assembly election petitions.
The results of the polls announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) are being contested in no fewer than 25 states out of the 28 states where elections were conducted.
