The number of all polling units that were canceled or where voters were unable to cast a ballot is entered by INEC on Forms EC40G.
According to Channels Television, the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, and Kashim Shettima were the defendants in Mister Peter Obi v. INEC, which started the day’s proceedings.
