Timi Frank calls for live transmission of PEPT proceedings
Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Timi Frank, has called on the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal (PEPT) to transmit its proceedings live. 

Frank said this would ensure transparency and openness in the conduct of the tribunal, and make Nigerians feel a sense of belonging by keeping them abreast of the progress or otherwise of hearings of the petitions as critical stakeholders. 

He also urged the PEPT to urgently commence sitting, ensure an accelerated hearing of the case and speedily conclude the case within the time statutorily allotted before the inauguration on May 29, 2023.

Frank accused the All Progressives Congress of buying time with delay tactics so as to frustrate the case till after inauguration, allowing the APC to use incumbency powers to influence the judgment of the court. He called on the Tribunal especially the Justices of the Appeal Court and Supreme Court to put Nigeria first before personal interest. 

Frank revealed intelligence reports indicating that the Department of State Services (DSS) has started putting threat calls across to a few Justices of the Appeal and Supreme Courts to delay the court processes to the advantage of the ruling APC.

Frank called on the international community to help save democracy in Nigeria by prevailing on President Muhammadu Buhari to call the DSS to order and stop the agency from interfering in the electoral and judicial processes in the country. 

He also called on the DSS to stop being partisan and to concentrate on their constitutionally assigned duties. Frank described as unfortunate a situation where the DSS has been turned into an errand boy of the highest bidders through the alleged illegal sale of information that recently manifested in leakage of personal telephone conversations between high profile Nigerians.
