Tribunal sacks Manager from Senate, orders election rerun within 90 days
The Election Petitions Tribunal sitting in Asaba, on Saturday, nullified the election of James Manager of the Peoples Democratic Party as the senator representing Delta South senatorial district.
Former Gov. Emmanuel Uduaghan, candidate of the All Progressives Party at the Feb. 2019 National Assembly Elections, had approached the tribunal, praying it to invalidate the victory of Manager. Justice Onyeabo, in his judgement, ordered INEC to withdraw the certificate of return issued to Manager. The petitioner had listed the areas where the electoral irregularities were discovered to include Burutu, Bomadi, Patani, Isoko North, Warri South-West and Warri North local government areas.In his reaction however, counsel to Mr Manager, Larry Selekeowei, said that his client was not satisfied with the judgement.He told journalists shortly after the judgment that they would go back and study the judgement thoroughly before appealing it.
