Appeal Court Sets Aside Tribunal Judgement, Affirms Abdullahi Sule of APC As Nasarawa Gov

Interestingly, the Appeal Court in Abuja on Thursday affirmed the election of Nasarawa State Governor, Abdullahi Sule.

The appellate court also set aside the October 2 judgement of the Nasarawa State Election Petitions Tribunal that sacked APC’s Sule and declared David Ombugadu, candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) winner of the governorship election.

Delivering judgement, the three-member panel held that the tribunal erred in law in concluding that Sule did not win majority of the votes cast in the election.
