The trial of the Parliamentary Primaries election dispute in the Walewale constituency involved the cross-examination of seven key witnesses. Their witness statements were admitted as evidence in chief by both counsels. The Tamale High Court of Justice, presided over by Justice Richard Marc Kogyapwah, asked counsels to raise objections if any regarding the trial checklist presented by both defense counsels. The 1st defendant's counsel, Samson Lardy Anyenini (ESQ), objected to some exhibits presented by the plaintiff's counsel, Sylvester Isang (ESQ) because they did not prove death, except for a medical death certificate signed by a medical doctor. The plaintiff's counsel argued that the defendant's objections were baseless and misplaced, asserting that the witnesses were relevant to the case.
