Chairman of the Tribunal, Justice Halima Mohammed, said though the tribunal had Jurisdiction to entertain such prayers, the motions were not contained in the original petitions brought by the plaintiffs involved.
She said granting the motions filled by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and Labour Party, LP, will definitely affect the life of the original case before the court.
The Tribunal also dismissed the motion filed by Reuben Egwaba, the counsel to Labour Party seeking to stop the inauguration of Yahaya Bello because he (Bello) has no Deputy as at the time of the supplementary election of 5th December 2015.
Justice Mohammed urged all the parties in the case to prepare for accelerated hearing of the substantive case, which will commence from next sitting.
