The judgement of the Court of Appeal, sitting in Akure, the Ondo State capital, on the case between the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Governor Rotimi Akeredolu and candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Eyitayo Jegede in the last governorship election in the state, would be determined on Wednesday (today).
It was, however, gathered that the judgement would be delivered virtually.
When contacted, the spokesperson for PDP in the state, Kennedy Peretei, confirmed the development.
He said, “The judgement will be delivered today as scheduled virtually, we have been informed but we are yet to get the code to connect, hopefully before the judgement commences, they will send it to us.”
Similarly, the state’s chairman of the APC, Ade Adetimehin, also confirmed the development.
Heavily armed security operatives were observed patrolling the state capital to forestall the possible breakdown of law and order by the political thugs.
