According to a statement released by David Umar Mike, the Secretary of the Tribunal, all proceedings will now take place at the National Judicial Institute on Umar Yar’Adua Way in Abuja. Litigants have been urged to take note of this change in venue.
While the statement did not explicitly mention the reason behind the sudden relocation, a credible source within the tribunal revealed that the decision was prompted by alarming security concerns.
The source disclosed that the tribunal’s staff members had been subjected to multiple attacks in Lokoja, with the situation escalating to a point where their lives were at risk.
