"Election cases should be taken seriously by NEC,” said Chief Justice Korkpor, Thursday during hearing into the Bill of Information filed before the high court by the legal counsels of the ruling Unity Party (UP). In the Bill of Information, Cllr. Benedict Sannoh, asked the high court to prevail on NEC to surrender documents they had subpoenaed from NEC. Chief Justice Korkpor urged NEC to take charge of their hearing and avoid delay tactics in the pursuing election. Alexander Zoe prayed the high court to deny the Bill of Information and order NEC to resume jurisdiction over the hearing.
