According to reports, the parties to the case have been served with the notice for the scheduled hearing.
The disputed apex court’s judgment was delivered barely 24 hours to the inauguration of the party’s governorship candidate, David Lyon, and his running mate, Biobarakuma Degi-Eremienyo.
The five-man panel of the court led by Justice Mary Peter-Odili disqualified Mr Eremienyo’s candidacy and ruled that the disqualification had rendered the joint ticket a nullity.
