The legal team representing Dr. Asue Ighodalo, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, submitted more than 1,000 original documents as evidence on Friday to the Edo State Governorship Election Tribunal.
Truth Live News confirmed that the documents included result sheets, certified true copies (CTCs), and extracts from the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) BVAS system.
The submission marks a critical step in Ighodalo’s challenge of the election outcome, as he seeks to prove alleged irregularities in the September 21 governorship poll. The certified documents are expected to provide a detailed account of the electoral process and form the bedrock of the PDP’s argument that the results declared by INEC did not reflect the true will of the electorate.
The lead counsel for Ighodalo expressed confidence that the documents would substantiate their claims. “This evidence is incontrovertible,” the lawyer stated. “We are prepared to demonstrate that justice must prevail.”
