The Supreme Court has set the date of Thursday, October 26, for the delivery of the ultimate verdicts in the two remaining petitions challenging the legitimacy of President Bola Tinubu's victory in the last presidential election.

These petitions were submitted by the presidential candidate of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, and Peter Gregory Obi from the Labour Party (LP). Dr. Awemeri Festus Akande, the Director of Press and Information for the Supreme Court, confirmed this development on Wednesday.

He assured that comprehensive security measures have been taken to ensure the safety of the court premises and its surroundings.

A seven-member panel of Justices, led by Justice John Inyang Okoro, concluded the final arguments presented by the legal representatives of the parties involved in the petitions on Monday. Following this, the Justices reserved their judgments for the upcoming ruling.
