KANO — The National/State House of Assembly Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Kano has on Monday upheld the election victory of the former majority leader, House of Representatives and member representing Doguwa/Tudunwada Federal Constituency, Alhassan Ado Doguwa at the February 25th, 2023 general election.

Justice Owolabi said all the three grounds relied upon by the petitioner, alleged corrupt practices as perpetuated by Alhassan Doguwa, Non-Compliance with Electoral Law, and that failure to have the needed lawful votes to win the Election, were baseless and could not be accepted as reasons to cancel the Election.

The Tribunal in a unanimous decision, agreed that all the 32 witnesses brought about by the Petitioner could not concurrently give enough evidence that would truncate the election.
