The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar and his party will on Thursday, close their case at the Presidential Election Petition Court, in their joint petition challenging the outcome of the February 25 presidential election.
The petitioners, according to a pre-hearing report were supposed to close their case on Tuesday.
However, at the resumed hearing of the petition, the petitioner’s lead counsel, Chris Uche, SAN told the court that his clients lost two days out of the days allotted to them and prayed the court to allow them two more days.
The court agreed with Uche because one of the days lost was the Democracy Day Public Holiday of June 12.
