The panel, which was headed by Justice Mohammed Garba and other four members reserved judgment to a date to be communicated to all the parties involved in the petition.

Lawyers to INEC, President Buhari and the All Progressives Congress, in their own argument, however, urged the Tribunal to dismiss the petition with substantial cost for lacking in merit and substance.
The lawyers further noted that the nation’s law only requires a candidate to be educated up to secondary school level or its equivalent, which their client possessed, Channels TV reports.
