How, if your hand is burning and you don't remove it doesn't that make you a mad man?

Really? So no evidence was presented?

The whole thing was well planned, what they forget to do was switch off internet connection too.

Abeg they should put power back on, some of us have things to do

Obi's petition has been struck out because it lacks merit according to the judges.
It is well......OBIDIENTs don't despair. We move and wait for a response from Peter Obi. We won the elections and we will prove it

There's enough evidence to proof that Tinubu is a Mandate Thief. Tribunal just reecho the Criminality that has been ushered by Thief Tinubu.

The Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal said it rejected 10 out of 13 witnesses presented by the Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi.

Justice Haruna Tsammani, who took over to deliver judgment on the substantive petition filed by Obi and LP, said this on Wednesday.

Tsammani said Obi called 13 witnesses, who testified as PW1 to PW13, noting that of the 13 witnesses, only three witnesses whose statements are on oath, were filed along with the petition.

The remaining 10 witnesses, the Justice said, were subpoenaed and their witness statements on oath were only filed after the hearing started.

Tsammani held that by virtue of section 285 of the Nigerian constitution, section 137(7) of the Electoral Act 2022, and other provisions, every witness statement on oath must be filed along with the petition.

He said that based on the Supreme Court authority, once the 21-day window for filing an election petition elapses, the content of the petition cannot be amended.

The Justice stated further that no additional statement on oath can be filed after the close of the specified window since the respondents would not have the opportunity to respond.

Tsammani said the petitioners were aware of the legal provision relating to the filing of witness statements on oath, yet went ahead to present 10 witnesses without their witness statements on oath earlier filed with the petition.

Details later…

So, normal people still support APC after Buhari finished this country.

Nigerians don't deserve pity; we deserve the kind of leaders we get

Unfortunately for you agbadorians, Peter Obi's second home is Supreme Court. 😎

LikeAking:
President Tinubu traveled out of the country before the PEPT judgement taking place today, because he wants to be welcomed back to the country like a God after is victory at the tribunal…


The welcome Tinubu will receive after his victory, is one that has not been seen before in the history of humanity..

keymatt:
It's not over my dear Agbadorians we will meet in Supreme Court.

With what is playing out at the tribunal, it is glaring that the exercise was staged in favour of Tinubu and APC. The fact that Obi and Atiku was absent also lays credence to this. It is obvious to progressive and well meaning Nigerians that our judiciary arm of government is dead and officially another APC lap dog. The truth is that if the judges wanted to be fair, Tinubu shouldn’t have been sworn in as president in the first place. What we are witnessing on the floor of the PEPT is a well scripted verdict been read by a compromised judicial system…. It’s indeed sad and unfortunate that the judiciary which is meant to be last the hope of common man failed Nigerians….. Obi, Atiku and Nigerians will not get justice today…. Is there still hope for Nigeria?
