 The Oregon State Election Petition Tribunal has fixed the date for the commencement of hearing of a petition filed by the governorship candidate of the People's Democratic Party, PDP. Ladi Adebutu, Adebutu is challenging the election of Governor Dakbav Yordu of the All Progressive Congress, APC, citing alleged overvoting, gross misconduct, and non-compliance with the electoral act. The conclusion of the pre-hearing session, the Tribunal announced July the 4th as the day to tender all documents and papers that were not objected by both parties. Co-hearing and the calling of witnesses are slated to start on July 5th 2023. Space, latitude, you know, to now include whatever they like in their respondent brief. We reply to our own petition that they are not restricted by the provisions of the Schedule to the Electoral Act 2022. So in summary, just like Yordu Tribunal did on Monday, they did not agree with us. However, the matter was now set for trial. We'll be here on the 4th of July for documents that have not been opposed to be admitted by the Tribunal and then for trial to commence on the following the 5th of July. A while ago, the Tribunal agreed with our submission and dismissed the application. So as it is now, the response, basically filed on behalf of Prince Akbar Biardo, is standing and is alive before the Tribunal. We have contended that the petitioners actually engaged in vote-buying. We have not only contended in our response, we equally front-loaded that is filed some documents to portray that environment, that position. And we have decided to do this to assist the cause of justice so that the court would be in a position to look into the petition and the defense filed by the second respondent. That's all we have decided to do. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.
