A witness of the Labour Party (LP) and its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has told the Presidential Election Petitions Court that the expert analysis of results of the presidential poll shows that four months after the February 25 elections, INEC failed to upload results on IREV.
Led in evidence by LP counsel, Livy Uzoukwu (SAN), the witness, Tanko Yunusa, who is the chief spokesman of the LP and the Director of Media of the LP Campaign Council, also testified that INEC allocated results to candidates in the election on Friday.
Under cross examination, counsel for the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Kemi Pinheiro (SAN) drew the attention of the witness to a judgment of the Federal High Court in Abuja which ruled that the commission was entitled to use any means it chooses to collate election results.
He also said he was not aware if the LP appealed against the judgement.
Meanwhile, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the Labour Party (LP) have concluded their cases at the court.
Both parties, and their presidential candidates, Atiku Abubakar and Peter Obi respectively, also tendered their final documents and witnesses on Friday.
This is just as the Chairman of the five-member panel of justices, Justice Haruna Tsammani has set July 3 for INEC, President Bola Tinubu, VP Kashim Shettima, the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Kabiru Masari to open their defense.
