Meanwhile, the Presidential Election Petition Court, PEPC, on Monday in Abuja turned down the request by the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar for the live streaming of proceedings of his petition against the election and declaration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu as winner of the last presidential election.
The Court held that the request was a novel and not supported with any law in the country for now.
Chairman of the Court, Justice Haruna Simon Tsammani, who delivered the unanimous decision of the panel, said the request was not rooted from the petition Atiku filed before the Court.
