The seven-man Election Panel is headed by Senator Hope Uzodinma, Governor of Imo State, with Senator Ajibola Bashiru as secretary.
The five-man Election Appeal Panel has Yusuf Nawai as chairman and Kayode Ajulo as secretary.
Realnews reports that Victor Gaidom was recognised by the appellate court as the national in a ruling on Tuesday that sacked Adams Oshiohmhole as the national chairman.
