The Federal High Court (FHC) of Nigeria has constituted a special task force of judges to swiftly hear and determine all pre-election cases before it.
According to its Assistant Director of Information, Dr Catherine Oby-Christopher, a circular letter issued by the Chief Judge of the Court, Justice John Tsoho, says it became necessary to designate a team of judges following the large volume of pre-election suits that have flooded the court.
Justice Tsoho further stated that the judges would have four weeks within which to dispose of the pre-election cases.
