The Justice Adekunle Adeleye-led tribunal okayed the matter for adoption of addresses, after Governor Douye Diri, his deputy, Lawrence Awhrujakpo and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, who were cited as respondents in the matter, closed their defence. Each of the respondents produced a witness that testified before the tribunal, even as they tendered several electoral documents in evidence.

'In fact, looking at the results that were tendered, the writing looked similar, as if it was written by one person. And looking at it closely, it looks like that was the writing of my brother, Dr Dennis Otiotio.
