As tribunal proceedings continued today, APC lawyers tampered with a voter registration evidence already admitted in evidence by the tribunal.
They gave a PDP witness a copy of the doctored evidence and told him he couldn’t have voted as he was not registered. The witness, even after insisting that he registered and voted, was ridiculed and heckled by the APC lawyers and supporters in court.
When PDP lawyers tried to cross examine the witness to show his voters card they objected and told the tribunal chairman that no new evidence can be introduced. The chairman ruled and they rejoiced as they thought they had duped the tribunal like their client duped the system.
At this point, the PDP team went back to recheck the evidence and it was discovered that the APC lawyers removed the relevant page so as to deceive, dupe and con the tribunal and by extension Edo people. Just like they did in the governorship election now in the tribunal.
The tribunal was promptly informed and the chairman showed his frustration at the failed fraud and deception. The APC lawyers hid their heads in shame.
The tribunal clearly needs to caution the APC and its Lawyers to stop the smuggling in of fake documents and doctoring of documents to cross examine PDP witnesses.
If your have no objection or defence to the evidence deposed to by PDP, plead guilty as charged so that Edo people can get the governor they voted for…free advice from Edo people.
