“The judiciary has been a major role player in the sustenance of democracy in Nigeria by adjudicating in all cases that arise from pre-election and post-election activities. “I want to remind the judges that the assignment ahead of them is enormous and as such, due diligence and professionalism is expected from them.“Time is of essence in election petition tribunal and you should desist from granting frivolous adjournments,’’ she said.
