JUST IN: THE PETITIONS FILED BY, RT. HON. IBRAHIM BABA HASSAN AND AMB. CHRIS GIWA, RESERVED FOR JUDGMENT

By: Valentine Adese (JP),

The Petitions No: EPT/PL/HR/08/2023 and EPT/PL/SEN/01/2023, filed by Rt. Hon. Ibrahim Baba Hassan, former Deputy Speaker of Plateau State House of Assembly and that filed by Amb. Chris Giwa and their party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), have been reserved for Judgment by the National/State Houses of Assembly Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Jos, Plateau State to a date to be communicated to parties in the Petition.

The Petitions were adjourned for Judgments yesterday, after Counsels in the Petitions adopted their Final Written Address.

You would recall that, while the Petition filed by, Rt. Hon. Ibrahim Baba Hassan is challenging the election won by Hon. Musa Agah of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the House of Representatives for Jos-North/Bassa Federal Constituency of Plateau State, Amb. Chris Giwa is challenging Sen. Simon Mwadkon, over the Senatorial election for Plateau North Senatorial District.

You would also recall that, REALITY had reported that, with the closing of Defense by the 4^th and 5^th Respondents in both Petitions, the National/State Houses of Assembly Tribunal had order all parties in the two Petitions, to file their Final Written Address on or before the 26^th of July, 2023 and adopt same on the 27^th of July, 2023.

The details of their respective Counsel Final Written Address and the issues adumbrated upon, coming soon…
