Supreme Court receives records on appeal by Zamfara governor-elect, others
The Supreme Court has received the records of proceedings at the lower courts in relation to the appeal filed by Zamfara State’s governor-elect, Mukhtar Idris and 37 others, against the judgement of the Court of Appeal in Sokoto.
The Independent National Electoral Commission , acting on the Appeal Court’s judgment, has failed to issue certificate of return to Idris and others, who are also members of the APC, elected to the state’s House of Assembly. A senior court official informed The Nation that in view of the urgency involved, the case being election-related, the court could be moved to abridge time.
In the letter dated April 2, 2019, authored by their lawyer, Mahmud Magaji , Idris and others argued that the judgement by the Court of Appeal in Sokoto contained no positive or direct order. Part of the letter reads: “It is worthy of note that the purported judgement of the Court of Appeal, has no any positive or direct order.
