the noise level in the court.<\/div>\n<div>Justice Muhammad had led a seven-man panel of justices hearing the appeals from the governorship elections in Imo, Bauchi, Sokoto, Kano, Plateau and Benue States.<\/div>\n<div>But the court rose some minutes after the hearing commenced due to the crowd and the noise level in the court.<\/div>\n<div>As part of efforts to decongest the court, the CJN directed counsels representing the parties not to appear with more than five lawyers.<\/div>\n<div>He, however, granted the parties in the case to witness the proceedings and until that was done, Justice Muhammad ordered that the hearing be put on hold.<\/div>\n<div>Thereafter, politicians who were not parties in any of the appeals were asked to leave the courtroom as the police deploy a dog to assist in the decongestion process.<\/div>\n<div>After carrying out the directive of the CJN to decongest the courtroom, the court resumed proceedings.<\/div>\n<div>The appeals were brought before the court by various aggrieved candidates in the March 9 polls in the affected states.<\/div>\n<div>The Apex court is hearing the appeals filed by the governorship candidates 10 months after the elections held in the affected states.<\/div>\n<div>The governors returned elected by the independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in the states are Emeka Ihedioha (Imo), Bala Mohammed (Bauchi), Aminu Tambuwal (Sokoto ).<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Tanko Muhammad, gave the order following the inability
