The Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal has resumed proceedings and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) ought to open it defence.
Addressing the Tribunal on Monday, counsel to INEC Mr Yinus Usman, however, said they would not call any witness in the petition of the PDP and the former vice president.
According to him, the electoral body has painstakingly studied the petitioners’ case and would rely on their witnesses’ evidence under cross-examination.
The INEC counsel explained that the decision was taken in order not to waste the Tribunal’s precious time to repeat what their own witnesses admitted under cross-examination.
