APC agreed substantially with the report of the petitioner and said it would need five days to call one witness.


Akin Olujimi, counsel for Tinubu and Vice-President-elect Kashim Shettima, said he would be calling three witnesses with two to be subpoenaed, but added that he would need four days to put in his defence.


On the terms of cross-examination of the star witness, Olujimi said he would need 25 minutes.


Counsel for one of the respondents, Kabiru Masari, promised to call one witness and use one day for his defence.


APM also informed the court that it is not opposing the proposed consolidation of the three surviving petitions.


The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), for its part, said it was at the discretion of the court to decide how it went.


The electoral body insisted it was taking a neutral stance on the subject of consolidation of the three petitions.
