Counsel to Atiku and PDP, Mike Ozekhome (SAN) said a lot of things are wrong with the judgment, including “poor evaluation of evidence, non-evaluation of evidence, misplacement of exactly what the case of the petitioners is.
The fact that certain provisions of the Electoral Act being misinterpreted and misapplied, there is so much to appeal against.”
“At the Supreme Court there will be seven very, very good heads that will hear the appeal from here. There is no question about that; we will appeal this judgment,” he said.
Earlier PDP National Chairman, Uche Secondus said the party’s lawyers would study the judgment and do the right thing.
Section 134 (2) and (3) of the Electoral Act, 2010, provides for 180 days to dispose election petitions arising from the office of the president and vice president, while 134(3) provides that an appeal from the tribunal would be heard and disposed of within 90 days from date of the judgment.
