Okutekpa disclosed that two separate subpoenas, dated May 30 and June 6, were served on the TV station, which he said sent one of its staff members, to tender the requested evidence.
The Justice Haruna Tsammani-led five-member panel admitted the subpoenas in evidence and marked them as Exhibits PBH-1 and PBH-2.
The other one was a press conference by a national commissioner of the commission, Festus Okoye, who reiterated the commitment of the commission to electronically transmit the results. Relying on Paragraphs 4 and of the First Schedule to the Electoral Act 2022, President Bola Tinubu’s lawyer argued that the law was clear that a petition must be filed within 21 days after the declaration of the result of an election.
