The legal team of Governor Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed of the ruling People's Democratic Party (PDP) in Bauchi state at the state’s gubernatorial elections petition tribunal on Monday said it will urge the tribunal to dismis the petition filled by the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The lead counsel, Chris Uche SAN made this known while briefing journalists after the pre hearing session of the tribunal on Monday in Bauchi and said all the APC's petition lacks merit.
Chris Uche SAN said PDP will present all the relevant documents in order to demand for dismissal of the APC's petition and expressed confidence of winning the case at tribunal.
"We are happy that the pre-hearing session has started on this election matters and one beautiful thing about the election in Bauchi state is that this is the election that was well conducted. This is an election that everything speaks for its self, so we are going to file a motion to urge the tribunal to dismis APC's petition.
"So we are coming back to the tribunal on the 31st of May for continuation and conclusion of the pre-hearing and go into the main business of the matters. The petitioners said they need 4 weeks but we took 10 days to defend our case."
