– Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal
All political parties involved in the ongoing Presidential Election Petitions have been cautioned by the Tribunal ahead of the hearing proper.
The tribunal said it would not accept any unnecessary technicalities or sensational comments from lawyers to petitioners in the hearing.
The tribunal on Monday held its inaugural session, a legal ritual that precedes the actual hearing of petitions seeking to nullify the outcome of the 2023 presidential election.
At the hearing, a five-member panel of Justices of the Court of Appeal that will hear and determine all the five petitions challenging the declaration of the presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubi as the winner of the presidential election, were revealed.
It was gathered that the Presiding Justice, Haruna Tsammani urged lawyers representing all the petitioners to avoid sensational comments.
Justice Tsammani said the court would not tolerate time-wasting tactics and technicalities.
