Both INEC and the Attorney General of the Federation, Mohammed Bello Adoke, SAN, have been asked to appear before the court on April 24 to look at the legality or otherwise of the use of the card readers for a general election.
The court however held that if it is eventually proven that the use of the card readers were illegal and unconstitutional, it will move annul the outcome of the general election even after the elections have been held.
We recalls that the application was filed by a Senatorial candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Ogun state, Mr. Walihu Taiwo
