One seeking the order to serve the APC and Kano state governor by substituted means because all efforts to serve him through personal service was proved abortive as stated to us by the registry. “However, we learnt today that, the registry was yesterday able to serve the governor personally and subsequently we apply for the court to strikeout the application which the court did.” “The second application was to ask the court to extend the exparte order given to us to inspect election materials in the INEC because the order given to us elapsed after 14 days from the day it was given to us and the court was of the opinion that since the petition was served on all both parties it is better for us to put them on notice so that they could come to the court and an order will be given to them to act accordingly."
