“My lord, our objection is anchored on the Supreme Court authority in Buhari Vs INEC and others. I object to this application because this witness is not the maker, neither was it tendered through him .We further rely on Palladium Mining Ltd & Gekpan Nigeria Limited 2003," he said.


The Thursday’s proceedings brought the cross-examination of the witness, a former assistant director, Legal in the Federal Ministry of Justice, now serving in the Federal Ministry of Power as an assistant legal adviser to conclusion.


Justice Onwuegbuzie adjourned the matter till July 2, 2026 for further hearing.
