After all formal introduction from all parties ,it was the turn of the 2nd respondent to commence their defense. The 1st witness to the respondent was ushered into the witness box , as his disposition can be found on page 875-877 of their response. Their 1st witness is Mr. Jimoh Osagiede Justice, a businessman who resides at 49, Lagos Street, Benin city , Oredo LGA. INEC Counsel- Counsel- Was it after the election you were invited to your secretariat to write your findings Witness- Yes. Counsel- Your findings were used to file your disposition? Witness - yes COUNSEL TO THE 3RD RESPONDENT- Counsel- It will be wrong to tell anybody that there was accreditation. Witness - There was good manner of accreditation, court thrown into laughter. Counsel- Do you have your party agent card? Witness- Yes. Counsel- We seek to tender his party agent card as an evidence. INEC's counsel - No Objection PDP Counsel- My lord , i object with all seriousness because the witness never included this as an evidence in his written disposition , it wasn't listed and not included and with respect it's irrelevant to this application, so I thereby object to the admissibility of this item as an evidence. The judge ruled that the document be admitted as evidence. COUNSEL TO PDP- Counsel to PDP pleads for 10 minutes to cross examine witnesses, all respondents objects. |

Obaseki’s witness from ward 5 unit 24 of Oredo LG said he voted but when he was given the voters register from his unit, his name wasn't found in the voters register but he voted. 1 Like |

To the second witness: Witness number 2 not even registered to vote or trained by INEC to act as agent. He is at best a mercenary engaged to come and bear false witness. |

As the break resumes: The 8th witness, Mr. Valentine Asuen is to be cross examined using exhibit PO 105(25) from Oredo LGA. COUNSEL TO INEC- Counsel - There was accreditation in your polling unit on the day of the election. Witness- Yes my Lord. Counsel- Everybody that voted were accredited simultaneously Witness- Yes my lord. Counsel- There was only 1 Voter register on the day of the election? Witness- Yes my lord. COUNSEL TO APC Counsel- Do you know one Joseph Osagiobare. Witness- Yes I do, before I joined APC we were together in PDP. Counsel- Quickly look at Exhibit PO 324(26), that's the voters register for your polling unit, I put it to you that it contains ticking on the left and right. Witness- Yes my Lord. Counsel- The tickings means that there was both accreditation and voting in your unit. Witness- Yes sir. COUNSEL TO PDP. Counsel- Valentine, your attention was drawn to exhibit 325(26) and you confirm that was the voters register used in your polling unit during the election. Witness- Yes my Lord. Counsel- It was duly certified by INEC Witness- Yes Counsel- Now look at your own name ,you will discover that there was tickings on both sides Witness- Yes but when I accredited I was aware but I don't know if my voting box was ticked. Counsel- Look at the total number of ballot papers issued which is 977,now you will also see that used ballot papers is 529, while unused ballot papers amounted to 199. When you add the used and unused ballot papers together, what will you get? Witness- It's 728 My question is where did 249 ballot papers disappear into? Where did APC get this dull youth leader who flopped *** Both the 9th,10th and 11th witnesses all established that there was no accreditation in their polling units. |

Counsel to Obaseki jittery as he complained about the publishing of the result of the recounted ballot papers in various print and electronic media platforms. But the judge in his wisdom who seems very abreast with happenings in the world of information told Olanipekun (SAN) that the panel of judges have all been following the reportage on the electronic media and stated that they were impressed he added that those in the print media are also doing same but cautioned that only proceedings within the tribunal sitting should be reported. The judge adjourns proceedings to tomorrow February 24th 2017. 1 Like |
