Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Joe Keshi, a retired ambassador, has appealed to the Supreme Court to allow cameras into the court for the first time when the hearing for the Presidential election commences.<\/p>\n

The Labour Party, LP; the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP; and the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP; have all vowed to approach the court following the outcome of February 25 Presidential and National Assembly elections.<\/p>\n

Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress, APC, was declared winner of the election amid outcry of rigging, suppression and manipulation of votes by politicians across the country.<\/p>\n

Keshi, who had been ambassador to many countries, including Togo, Ethiopia, Belgium, the Netherlands, Namibia, Sierra Leone and the United States, said the Supreme Court should endeavour to make the process transparent this time.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Supreme Court should do the right thing and for the Supreme Court to do the right thing, for their own sake,\u201d he said on Arise Television\u2019s The Morning Show.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor goodness sake, let them allow cameras into the court for the first time so that Nigerian people could follow the process so that at the end of the day whatever judgement they gave, Nigerians would be satisfied that they followed their process and followed all the evidence.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m appealing to the judges to allow cameras into the court for the first time to witness so that Nigerians can listen to the evidence and be convinced that the judges are credible as we want them to be.\u201d<\/p>\n
