Meanwhile, the request by the counsel to Bola Tinubu, Wole Olanipekun, for a longer adjournment was rejected.
The Action Peoples Party has withdrawn its election petition against President-elect Bola Tinubu at the presidential election petition court.
“We urge the court to permit the televising of the proceedings, especially at this critical moment in the nation,” Mr Uche pleaded.
In his opening speech, Mr Tsammani urged the lawyers to refrain from engaging in unnecessary technicalities, which could cause delays in the expeditious hearing of the petitions.
The LP presidential candidate made this statement in a tweet shortly after meeting with Labour Party members in his home state Anambra on Sunday.
The commission stated this in its reply to a petition marked: CA/PEPC/01/2023 filed by AA and Solomon-David Okanigbuan, the first and second petitioners, respectively.
The three-member panel granted the request while ruling on three separate ex parte applications filed by Mr Atiku and PDP; Mr Obi and LP and APM.
The motion exparte, dated March 2, 2023, was lodged at the Presidential Election Petition Court.
