There is a heavy security presence at the Court of Appeal in Abuja ahead of the judgment on the Kano State Governorship Election Petition.
This increased security is likely due to concerns about potential reactions following the tribunal decision in September.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) initially declared the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdulahi Umar Ganduje, as the winner, but the tribunal later invalidated some of his votes.
The heavy security is in place to maintain order and prevent any unrest that may arise from the judgment.
