BrandNewsDay reports that there was jubilation in Lafia City as the Nasarawa State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal, on Monday, October 2, 2023, nullified the victory of Governor Abdullahi Sule.
This online news platform understands that the three-man panel led by Justice Ezekiel Ajayi while delivering the judgment via Zoom, said Emmanuel Ombudagu of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is the winner.
Two of the justices agreed that the election was won by the PDP while one judge dissented. Ezekiel maintained that the petitioner was able to prove his case beyond reasonable doubt.
Former Nasarawa Governors Abdullahi Adamu and Tanko Al-makura were among other political dignitaries present at the court.
