BREAKING: Drama As Tribunal Shut Down Senior Advocate Charles Uwensuyi-Edosomwan For Interrupting Court Judgement (VIDEO)

A somewhat amusing incident unfolded at the Court of Appeal, where the Presidential Election Petitions Court was in session on Wednesday.

During the delivery of judgments, the justices found it necessary to call to order a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) and the legal representative for the All Progressives Congress (APC), Charles Uwensuyi-Edosomwan, due to his interruptions.

The Tribunal had commenced its session at 9 a.m., and the justices had been delivering verdicts in what can only be described as a marathon of judgments. After a grueling eight hours of judgment delivery, which was led by the five-man panel chaired by Justice Haruna Tsammani, Uwensuyi-Edosomwan, at 5 p.m., requested the court to be concise and either “dismiss or allow” the petitions presented by the Labour Party and its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, against the victory of President Bola Tinubu of the APC.

“I have listened to your Lordship’s eloquent judgement,” Uwensuyi-Edosomwan interjected.

“You don’t have to interrupt judgment, we are delivering judgment and we are still on,” one of the justices shut down the senior lawyer. “You don’t have to suggest to us how to deliver judgment.”

“You don’t have to suggest to us how to deliver judgment. So, you seriously think that all five of us wouldn’t know that?” one of the justices queried.

Uwensuyi-Edosomwan, who subsequently apologised, took his sit while the judgment resumed.
