Tribunal: Labour Party's candidate vows to appeal victory of PDP in prominent southeast state

  • The candidate of the Labour Party in Enugu State, Chijioke Edeoga, has declared his intention to appeal the election tribunal’s verdict
  • He made this decision shortly after the Labour Party rejected the outcome of the tribunal’s judgment
  • The tribunal had ruled out the petition of the Labour Party candidate because his claims were not enough proof to sack the respondent

The Labour Party has reacted to the judgement of the Enugu State Governorship Election Petition Tribunal affirming Governor Peter Mbah’s victory at the February March 18 gubernatorial polls.

As reported by the Premium Times, the Labour Party rejected the verdict of Justice Kudirat Akano-led election petition court.
