COURT TO GOV LALONG: "YOU CANNOT STAND IN FOR TINUBU"

In an unusual turn of events, Governor Simon Lalong of Plateau State decided to represent the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, at the Presidential Election Petition Court in Abuja today.

However, Justice Haruna Tsammani led a five-member panel that recognized that an individual does not require representation. "You cannot represent an individual. Tinubu is not a corporation that would need a representative," he stated.

Undeterred, Lalong offered, "My Lords, in that case, I will represent the All Progressives Congress, APC."

The court adjourned several pre-hearing sessions on petitions filed by various parties, giving them time to identify all the witness statements and documents they would rely on or object to during the actual hearing. It remains to be seen whether anyone else will attempt to represent an individual in the future, or if this was simply a one-off case of political buffoonery.

"If we allow them to operate, it is a recipe for epidemic outbreak": AEPB shuts Garki International Market

The Abuja Environmental Protection Board (AEP sealed up the Garki International Market in Abuja on Friday. The board said they acted in response to the accumulated refuse dumps that could cause an epidemic outbreak.


The Director of the AEPB, Mr Osi Braimah, recounted that the board had issued a warning to the business owners against the poor environmental hygiene practices. According to him, "solid wastes, cabbages all over the place, bleeding sewage lines and heaps of refuse dumps were all over the market."

"We served them an abatement notice. Unfortunately, nothing was done. So, we simply went to the court for an order to seal up the market, so that everything can stop, until it is cleaned up.

“We derive no joy in shutting down the market but we will be failing in our responsibilities if we allow them to continue," he said.
