Appeal Court, Abuja, has affirmed the candidacy of Akanimo Udofia as the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Akwa Ibom in the forthcoming general elections.
A three-member panel of justices headed by Justice Elfreda Williams – Dawodu, find merit in an appeal filed by Udofia, against the judgment of a lower court in Uyo.
Justice Williams – Dawodu, while delivering the judgment held that the lower court erroneously assumed jurisdiction over the matter and therefore its decisions on the matter cannot stand.
