The tribunal in its sitting also dismissed the petition of the candidate of the Action Alliance Party, UCHE NWOSU, which it described as incompetent.
Also, the tribunal dismissed the petition filed by the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Senator HOPE UZODINMA for failing to prove his case.
Three petitions were filed by the governorship candidates of the Action Alliance, All Progressives Congress, and All Progressives Grand Alliance, asking the tribunal to nullify the election of EMEKA IHEDIOHA of the People’s Democratic Party, on the ground that he was unlawfully declared as the governor of the state by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
