Summary Of What Happened In Court At The Presidential Election Tribunal 

Summary of What Happened in Court on Monday at the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal Pre-hearing: Case Against Tinubu/APC/INEC Begins.

● The presiding Judge is Justice Haruna Simon Tsammani. He heads a 5 Man Pannel of Justices.

● Tribunal Listened To Peter Obi's Case Against Tinubu, APC and INEC.

● The Plea By Obi's Lawyers To Televise The Proceedings was REJECTED.

● They announced That All Cameras Should Be Taken Out Of The Court Room And Everyone Should Keep Away Their Phones.

● AA party lawyers who came to represnt same party didn't know each other and when there is no clarity on who is the real lawyer, they both withdrew their petition against Tinubu, leaving another party called APM.

● Peter Obi's pre-hearing case was to verify if all parties have filed their responses.

● Gov. of Plateau state created his own drama too when he claimed to be representing and he was told he can't represent respondent, he changed it to "I will represent APC then". Looks like this whole this is a joke to APC by the way they have acted.

● Atiku's pre-hearing moved to tomorrow because of time.

● Journalists were barred by police who barricaded the court entrance while some Nigerians were seen protesting far away from the court.

● All parties involved agreed to cooperate with the Court during the course of the matter.

● The Presiding Justice set the tone for all the Election Petitions, stating that the Court will look at every matter on its merit and timeously, not only on grounds of technicalities.

● Lamidi Apapa abi Tincan didn't show up at the court today, but I suspect that Channels & TVC will likely invite him for interview this evening or tomorrow, just to give impression that LP is divided.

● A coalition of civil society groups protesting outside the Court of Appeal building in Abuja during the pre-hearing of the Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal on Monday.
