Edo's election dispute tribunal moves to Abuja for security reasons amid PDP-APC tensions.

The Edo governorship election tribunal has moved from Benin City to Abuja due to security concerns, following a shooting incident on January 15th. Both the PDP and APC have accused each other of orchestrating disruptions. The tribunal, led by Justice Wilfred Kpochi, will now run from the National Judicial Institute in Abuja, starting January 27th. The PDP challenges the election results favoring the APC's candidate, citing electoral malpractice. The relocation aims to ensure a safe, impartial judicial process.
