Although the admission of the exhibits was contested by INEC, Tinubu, Kashim Shetima and the All Progressives Congress (APC), the Presiding Justice of the Court, Haruna Simon Tsammani admitted them as exhibits.
At Tuesday’s proceedings, Obi also tendered INEC Results Viewing (IRev) reports in 21 Local Government Areas of Adamawa State, 20 in Ogun State, 16 in Ekiti State, 19 in Rivers State and 25 in Akwa Ibom State.
