The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Sokoto State, Saidu Umar, has rejected the verdict of the governorship election petition tribunal on the outcome of the March 18 election in the state.
The three-man panel of the tribunal led by Justice Haruna Msheila had earlier on Saturday upheld Governor Ahmed Aliyu’s victory in the election.
The panel dismissed Umar’s petition on the election for lack of substance.
