The Court of Appeal in Kaduna State, on Wednesday, dismissed an appeal brought against the Independent National Electoral Commission, the All Progressive Congress, and its governorship candidate, Uba Sani, by the New Nigeria Peoples Party.
Following the judgment of the Federal High Court sitting in Kaduna, which ruled that the case filed by the New Nigeria Peoples Party and its governorship candidate, Suleiman Hunkuyi, against INEC for listing Uba Sani as governorship candidate of the APC and 34 candidates for the Kaduna State constituencies is status bar, the party and its governorship candidate had challenged the ruling at the Court of Appeal.
The NNPP and its governorship candidate averred in their suit that the APC as a party did not conduct a valid ward congresses that produced delegates who participated in the primaries which produced the governorship candidate and State House of Assembly candidates, and should not have been listed as such for the 2023 general election.All rights reserved.
