Drama as angry PDP witness throws back questions at presidential tribunal
A witness in the ongoing hearing of the presidential election petition, Muhammed Tata, has alleged that elections were not conducted in his polling unit.
In a rather dramatic session of question and answers, Mr Tata who said he was deployed to cover elections in a polling unit within Jigawa State, forced a senior advocate, Lateef Fagbemi, to “request assistance” from the court on Monday. After reading through his statement, the witness said he was forced to sign, despite complaints that elections did not hold.
Mr Tata explained that he was neither concerned about winning or losing the elections. He added that his only contention is that justice prevails.
