BREAKING: Tribunal Upholds El-Rufai’s Election As Kaduna Governor.
The Governorship Election Petition Tribunal sitting in the Kaduna State capital has upheld the election of Nasir El-Rufai as duly elected governor of the State.
Delivering judgment on Monday, chairman of the three-man panel, Justice Ibrahim Bako, says that the petitioner, the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party , Mr Isah Ashiru was unable to prove his allegations of massive rigging and other electoral irregularities against Governor El-Rufai , the candidate of the All Progressive Congress before the Tribunal.
But the Tribunal ruled that the petitioner was unable to provide substantial evidence to prove his allegations, even as it notes that the petitioner did not present any factual evidence to prove INEC wrong in returning El-Rufai of the APC as duly elected. It however , dismisses the petitioner’s suit challenging the governorship election for lacking in merit .
