Through his lawyers, the governor said he did not see any reason to call for a witness because he had gathered enough evidence during the cross-examination to discredit the PDP and Isa over their failure to discharge the burden of proof as the law expected.
Sani said:
“Under cross-examination, this witness admitted not having participated in the election in any form on the election day. More fundamentally, PW1 (Gwazah) admitted and indeed gave evidence against interest when he testified.”
