The Presiding Justices of the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal Court have made it plain that the court will consider the merits of the substantive issue and not just minor details.
They promised that the cases presented to the tribunal will be decided with the time element in mind when they made this statement at the Court of Appeal on Monday.
The Independent National Electoral Commission, People's Democratic Party, Labour Party, and All Progressive Congress have all consented to assist the court in this matter.
