βThe whole courtroom is now murmuringβ
Justice Ugo and Justice Adah can be seen talking closely and whispering.
Justice Tsammani: Is it American Bar or New York
W: Itβs done on states basis by US. After 5 years you can move freely across but everyone is a member of the American Bar Justice Tsammani: But it does not state anything here. It does not say New York. Iβd just call it American Bar from New York. This one is a complementary card and not an ID Card.
APC: Itβs not sir
Justice Adah: Witness is this not a complementary card
W: It is my practice card that is complementary
Justice Tsammani: We cannot take this one. Itβs a complementary card but other things can be tendered W: Okay Sir APC: As the court pleases.

Justice Tsamamni: Give them back this one, weβd use just one.
INEC: My lord, we donβt know what exactly is being tendered, is it the membership card that is being accepted
Justice Bolaji: Show it to him A clerk takes the card to INEC Justice Tsamamni: Which of the cards should we use now witness
W: Anyone, I have them many and anyone is fine
Justice Tsammani: Which one is the latest Witness is staring at the cards and passes one.
INEC: No objection to the membership cards my lord Olanipekun: No objection
SAN Livy: My lord to make it very short, we vehemently oppose to this purported so called membership card from American Bar and we would state our reasons in full.Β
Membership card oh, itβs like itβs a fake one because even from here itβs looking like complementary card from shomolu boys.
Justice Tsammani has admitted the card as evidence and tagged it as exhibits before the court.
APC: The last question my lord.
As a long standing friend of Bola Ahmed Tinubu for over 35 years, you know that his Nigerian Citizenship is by birth
W: Yes Sir
APC: Thank you. That would be all.
SAN Livy is now up and tapping the microphone βTesting Testing for vawulence 1,2,3 β
Livy: In your witness deposition, you stated that you would rely on international observers report right
W: Yes
Livy: So have you seen the European Union report. Take a look at this document. Thatβs the EU Report right
W: So it is written Sir.
Justice Bello: What exhibit is that Livy: My lord, not yet rendered in this proceeding. I seek to tender it my lord.
INEC is up: We object to this documents my lord Olanipekun is up looking angry and speaking with a very loud voice: My lord , I expected Livy to tell us he is tendering CTC of an exhibit already before this case in the court tagged exhibit RA8
Justice Bolaji: Not in this case Olanipekun Olanipekun: Itβs in this case, it has been tendered in this case
Justice Adah: Itβs PDPβs case
Olanipekun looking down: Oh okay, we object to it my lord. βOn colos on colosβ
APC: We object my lord
Justice Tsamamni: Livy please give us the documents.Β

SAN Livy: Please my lord, can I respectfully request for the exhibit and use it for now to save time.
Justice Tsammani: Yes

W: Witness reads it out βThe witness reads it out loud and it states that a lot of people were killed including Labour Party Senatorial Candidateβ (Someone should please add this page on the comment)
W: After reading the ECOWAS paragraph 17 says: I do not agree with the report βNa you bring the ECOWAS report come oh and you do not agreeβ Wahaluurrrr

W: No Iβve not (stammering)
Livy: So you cannot tell us itβs not blurred
W: I can The whole courtroom is laughing.Β
Livy: The American Court relied on money laundering law in their decision right
W: It was 981 section and not 982
Livy: Did they rely on the constitution on money laundering
W: Ehmmmβ¦ Itβs 982
Livy: Did they rely on it
W: They relied on 982 What is this
Livy: Did you see the letter that the IG of police get from the US Embassy
W: Yes Livy: Dis you tender it
W: it was tendered
Livy: Did you tender it
W: It was tendered
Livy laughing: Thatβs fine. Did the report state any response on money laundering allegations.
W: Itβs a general response. They didnβt see anything on Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu βLol he called Tinubu Senator, so he knows we donβt have president β Olanipekun cuts in, let him re answer please
Livy: I am on my feet and youβre taking my time
Olanipekun: Your time is up already. I have no business with it
Livy: I am on my feet
Justice Tsammani: Go on Livy Livy: Witness does that US Embassy report you brought here show response on money laundering
W: No it does not
Livy: Very good. So the report does not address any issue
W: Well the money laundering is not a criminal case.Β
Livy: Oh. Okay. Thatβs not what I asked you but thank you for that response
Olanipekun: His time is up Livy:
Thatβs okay. Iβm done
Justice Ugo: I hope Livy does not have to appear before this witness one day in the Senate.

The whole courtroom is laughing
Livy: I am not in a hurry to leave what Iβm doing here my lord
Olanipekun: There is no re examination my lord And at this point Iβd like to tell you that this one witness stands for both the 2nd and 3rd respondents (Tinubu and Shettima) And that would be all for our case
