The appeals were entered by the All Progressives Congress (APC), Social Democratic Party (SDP) and the Labour party(LP) and their respective governorship candidates.
The Court of Appeal and the Delta State Election Petition Tribunal had affirmed the election of Oborevwori, saying allegations of non-compliance and electoral malpractice against him were not substantiated.
The legal team of SDP, APC and PDP, approached the apex court asking that the governor should be removed.
But Damian Dodo, counsel for the governor, urged the apex court to affirm the judgement of the lower courts because the appellants has no case.
According to Dodo, in the relevant electoral laws, there are no provisions stating that an election can be annulled because of lack of serial numbers on electoral materials.
After hearing the parties, the Supreme Court’s five-man panel chaired by Justice Inyang Okoro reserved judgement to a later date to be communicated to parties.
