Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Femi Falana has told the youth that they cannot get judgment by intimidating the judiciary.
Nigerians have been patiently waiting for the court's verdict on the petition filed against the APC and INEC regarding the 2023 presidential elections.
Banners and placards of #AllEyesOnTheJudiciary have been used to pass messages to the judges ahead of the court's sitting.
However, renowned lawyer Femi Falana told Channels Television yesterday that the majority of the youth think their candidate should be declared winner regardless of the evidence at hand in the court of law.
He said, "Some of the people voting for the first time believe that their candidate should be declared winner.
Even if the heavens will fall, and it won't fall anyway, the judges must give their decision regardless of blackmail or intimidation, convinced that they can justify their judgment."
