The Labour Party has said it will be calling 50 witnesses to testify against the victory of the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, and will need seven weeks to get this done.



According to the party’s counsel, Awa Kalu, who addressed the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal (PEPT) in Abuja on Saturday, the duration is because the forensic investigation of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) has yet to be carried out as directed by the court.

BVAS is an electronic device designed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to read permanent voter cards (PVCs) during elections for the verification of voters.

Secondly, Kalu said the petitioner is awaiting some documents requested for.

It was also agreed the star witnesses would need 30 minutes to demonstrate any electronic evidence.

That class of witnesses will be cross-examined for 20 minutes and five minutes will be for re-examination, while 10 minutes was allotted for other witnesses.

For the respondents, 20 minutes was allotted for the star witnesses and 30 minutes for cross-examination.

INEC said it had five witnesses set to testify in the Labour Party’s petition and proposed seven days to get it done.

The lead counsel of the commission, Abubakar Mahmoud, however, disagreed that there should be a separate time for demonstration of electronic evidence.

Roland Otaru, counsel to the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, and the Vice President-elect, Kashim Shettima, proposed nine days to call their witnesses, excluding expert witnesses.

The APC aligned with the submission of Tinubu and Shettima’s counsel, adding that it would be presenting seven witnesses for nine days.

Lacking in seriousness looking for manhood

Lobatan !!! from someone who want emergency Judgement!!!!! Even if you want 5 years we go give you . Although it is very difficult to get a lost mandate...

Seven weeks to provide evidence? Like seriously.

Out of the window goes the missing manhood. What is paining pandora Obituary is the "shishi" he gave. Obviously, the con artist has cut some deals on how to recover those "shishi".

I hope this is a joke, election held almost 8 weeks ago and you still want to plead for another 7 weeks to gather witnesses?
Obi should be serious for once.... Your supporters were saying the case can be done with in 2 weeks I laugh...

Which independent minded person will go to court & stand on Peter Obi’s behalf when Tinubu has been sworn in as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, even his own LP party agents will not show up to testify?

The man is just looking for reasons to buy time, & save face.

Witness from US regarding Tinubu's drug case and Amazon Web Services that host INEC servers will be called. They need time to book flight and come down.

Modified;

You want Tinubu to continue and think Obi is making a mistake and wasting his time at the tribunal, shouldn't you be happy? The fact that you're complaining that Obi is taking 7 weeks means you know he is on the right path. That's why you're uneasy

obi is a joke walai

All the obidients shouting rigging so he no see anyone drag out as witness

Oh, I forgot this is not nzogbu nzogbu show

Could this be true?

Ok. We'll wait Sir . Any devil assigned to steal our mandate will die in the next 9Days

Have they applied for Nigerian Visa, heard visa entry application can take up to 6 months o?

Well If they haven’t, then they should might as well forget entry, because no one is giving them any permit to enter Nigeria to testify any where, once Bola Ahmed Tinubu has been sworn in as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

SwissMass:

That's why he said he would become president one day cos it's not in the current dispensation

He just wants to build attention till further notice

Is like Obi needs 7 weeks to induce lies and train them to be ready. Doesn't he know he will need witnesses before? All the obidients that were making noise, they rig, they rig; you means with all rehearsals since, no one is ready until 7 weeks?

You seem to know more than him.
Are you also his lawyer?

The President-elect, Tinubu, through his lawyer, Roland Otaru, SAN, said he would require nine days to call a total of 21 witnesses, excluding expert witnesses, to defend his election victory.

In the same way, counsel for the APC, Niyi Akintola, SAN, said the party would call only seven witnesses, excluding those to be subpoenaed, to testify in the matter

Na apc con serious pass the clowns that carried them to court
