Also in court is the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomole , to witness the proceedings alongside the disqualified deputy Governor elect of the APC, Senator Degi Biobarakuma
The 7 member panel of the Justices of the Supreme court is led by Justice Sylvester Ngwuta.
Counsel to David Lyon, Afe Babalola is urging the court to set aside the judgment delivered on 13th February 2020.

He also argued that the judgment delivered on 13th February breached the applicant rights to fair hearing.
