The People’s Democratic Party, PDP has presented seventeen witnesses out of the six hundred and eighty five it lined up as it opened its case against the declaration of Governor Nasir El-Rufai as winner  of the March 9th  Governorship election in Kaduna State.
The PDP and its Governorship candidate in the poll, Isah Ashiru are asking the state Governorship Election Petition Tribunal to nullify the election of El-Rufai and declare its candidate the winner having scored the majority of valid votes cast during the election.
The petitioners, who joined INEC, APC and El-Rufai in the case, alleged that the poll was characterised by massive rigging, ballot box stuffing and violence in one hundred and ten wards in twelve local government areas of the state.
The PDP, at the resumed hearing on Monday, submitted names of 17 persons as first batch of witnesses who began testifying before the tribunal.
The Tribunal has adjourned to today, Tuesday, June 18 to continue, after taking three witnesses from Zaria local government.
