The Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal (PEPT) has dismissed the testimonies of 10 out of 13 witnesses who testified on behalf of the Labour Party (LP) in the ongoing petition challenging the election of President Bola Tinubu.

The witnesses, who were either subpoenaed or professional witnesses, were found to be “incompetent” and their testimonies were declared “worthless” by the PEPT.

Justice Tsammani also declared that witnesses 3,4,5,6, 7,8,9,10,11 and 13 subpoenaed by LP are not witnesses of the court. The witness statements, he said, were filed out of time.
