The All Progressives Congress (APC) had lodged a suit challenging Governor Yusuf’s electoral victory under the New Nigeria People Party (NNPP), arising from the election held on March 18th. One of the key contentions put forth by the APC is that the NNPP’s victory should be invalidated, citing violations of the Electoral Act of 2022.

Access to the court premises is tightly controlled, with only a limited number of journalists granted entry. Additionally, mobile phones are strictly prohibited within the courtroom.
