President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Mr. Yakubu Chonoko Maikyau, SAN, has called for the live broadcast of the proceedings of the 2023 Presidential Election Petition Tribunal in the interest of openness, justice, transparency and trust in the judiciary.He made the call in a statement issued in Abuja on Saturday.

The NBA President noted that “a live telecast is in the interest of the people of Nigeria. Section 36 (1) and (3) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria provides that judicial proceedings should be conducted in public.”

“Providing public access to the proceedings would meet the aspirations of the public to participate in the process,” he further said.

There should even be a law that compels the judiciary to invite the media to broadcast the tribunal proceedings live.

We don't want the media to use their words and summarize what happened. We want to see everything with our two eyes

I agree 100%

Mr Balabloo-blu-bulava cocaine-heroin drug baron also committed forgery/perjury, forged primary/secondary school certificates, was involved in identity theft, rejected BVAS/IREV/electronic transmission of election results, hired fake agbadorian bishops but is now running from court summons.

Let's see whether he will also kick against this live telecast of his trial. Meanwhile, the paid ers are already begging for forced endorsements and congratulations for the charade of 25th February, 2023.

It should be shown live.

Some will disagree for reason best known to them

Of course they are running to nowhere.Bayo Onanuga, Festus Keyamo, Femi Fani-Kayode, and other criminals defending this man can't get away with this myriads of criminality hanging on balabloo-blu-bulava by threatening others.

That's what the whole of Nigeria wants. Only criminals would oppose this.

Yes O! All good Nigerians it 100%....

@Freestuffsng Come and read a true story.

Way to go. That is how it is done in other countries. We need to know who and who is trying to cheat.

If we can watch the used BBNaija live...what stops us from watching Tribunal proceedings

ed, we need to know the of the evil structure in the judiciary. A tribunal proceeding should not be a secret affair. Every Nigerian needs to know what is going on. Everybody is an interested party.

It has to be televised live like Oputa .

Let me bend if the corrupt judiciary will permit this, you want the corrupt and evil practice of mahmood and APC to be seen and exposed to the whole world

Good. I want to see how some people with their band of chop and clean mouth lawyers would be thoroughly disgraced

Judiciary would determine.

Nigeria is full of lack of understanding

waiting for the enemies of democracy in Nigeria to explain why they shouldn't have a live telecast for the public to see instead of the media summarizing everything

Very nice, i this 100%

Not only will a live telecast help us follow the proceedings, it will also help us see the faces of the motherfucking judges that will rule nonsense.

Nice one
