The Presidential Election Petition Court sitting in Abuja has dismissed the application filed by the Peoples Democratic Party seeking live broadcast of proceedings.

The five-man panel of the court led by Justice Haruna Tsammani gave the ruling on Monday after parties had argued about it.

The court held that the motion being an interlocutory application, has to be rooted on the course of action of the petitioners.

The panel held that petitioners failed to show how the live broadcast of proceedings will advance their case seeking overturn of Bola Tinubu’s presidential victory.

He said proceedings are constitutionally allowed to be accessed to the public but does not mean that a court is a stadium.
