Justice Nayai Aganaba, Chairman of the Tribunal in Kano, has warned lawyers involved in the election petition to conduct themselves in accordance with the ethics of the profession.
Aganaba issued this warning during the inauguration of a three-man committee comprising of himself, and two other members, namely, Justice Ashu Augustine Ewah and Mustapha Tijjani, in Kano on Thursday.
He said that there would be no external influence in dispensing Justice to all the election petitions.
In his words,
“as you see these politicians they are all friends jumping from one party to another.
“We the lawyers should be cautious not to get too much involved and be left stranded at the end of the day creating enmity between ourselves the lawyers.”
The chairman also cautioned that the tribunal is not a tea party but a serious business as such there should be no acrimony where senior lawyers will openly engage each other in open quarrel.
