2019 ELECTIONS: Justice Bulkachuwa warns tribunal members

The President of the Court of Appeal (PCA), Justice Zainab Bulkachuwa has vowed to deal with any member of the election petitions tribunal found wanting in the discharge of their duties.

Justice Bulkachuwa made this declaration during the induction programme for justice of the Court of Appeal and members of the election petitions tribunals in Abuja yesterday.

“Like I have said before, each and every one of you will be closely monitored by my office and I will not hesitate to descend on any judge found wanting in the discharge of his or her duty,” she said.

“By the end of this induction training, you will all be abreast with what is expected of you and I am sure by the time you resume your duty posts you will be ready to carry out the tasks assiduously.”

The PCA reminded the judges that their assignment is enormous as they resume in their duties this week to receive petitions from aggrieved parties on the outcome of the election.
