AIT LIVE report that, Since the proceedings began, they have all repeatedly denied requests for media interviews. Adeniyi, who represented the APC in court on Tuesday, claimed that in contrast to the petitioners, who address the media following each day’s proceedings, the respondents have decided as a group to reject it.

The Justices reacted by saying they were seeing more of the solicitors involved in the case on TV than the reporters covering the case as well as the general public, and they advised the solicitors to bring fewer solicitors to court.

Allow TV reporters to perform their jobs, one of the judges stated.
