A three-member panel of the appellate court in Abuja led by its president, Justice Monica, has struck out an appeal by the sacked chairman of the Action Alliance party, Chief Kenneth Udeze.
The appeal which sought to reverse the nullification of Major Hamza Al-Mustapha’s candidacy and others was on Thursday ruled to be incompetent by Justice Monica Dongban-Mensem.
In the lead ruling, Justice Dongban-Mensem held that Udeze was wrong to have initiated the appeal in the name of Action Alliance and also listed the party as a respondent.In the appeal marked CA/ABJ/PRE/ROA/CV/1472MI/2022, the Justice pointed out that the AA could not be an appellant and a respondent in the same appeal.
Prior, on November 4,2022 Justice Abubakar had ordered INEC to accept the list of candidates submitted to it by the Omo-Aje leadership of the AA and to disregard the list submitted by Udeze, of which Major Hamzat Al-Mustpha was a presidential candidate.
