A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Magaji Mato, has cautioned that the African Democratic Congress (ADC) could run into serious difficulties if the Supreme Court fails to deliver judgment on a pending appeal within 48 hours.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Mato said the call for an accelerated ruling is understandable, especially given the political timelines and deadlines set by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

He made the remarks on Wednesday during an appearance on Arise Television’s Morning Show, where he stressed that the case carries major implications for Nigeria’s democratic process.

While acknowledging that the Constitution allows the Supreme Court up to three months to deliver judgment, he argued that the urgency surrounding the matter requires a much quicker decision.

According to him, any delay could render the judgment ineffective and may heighten political tension or even disrupt the electoral timetable.

Mato noted that the ADC’s concern over timing is not misplaced, especially in light of INEC’s election schedule and statutory deadlines.

He also said it is expected that the Supreme Court Justices are aware of the sensitivity of the matter and its broader impact on national stability.

“In a situation like this, where timelines and election preparations are involved, expeditious judgment is not out of place,” he said.

He warned that allowing a delayed ruling could have far-reaching consequences for the electoral process and the rights of political actors to fully participate.

Mato added that while judges are human, they are also expected to act with responsibility in matters that affect the nation’s democratic stability.

He expressed optimism that the court would act swiftly, suggesting that any delay beyond a very short window could create complications with INEC’s timetable for political parties.
