The All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate Uba Sani’s election as governor of Kaduna State has been affirmed by the Supreme Court.
In a unanimous ruling on Friday, a five-member panel of the court determined that Mohammed Ashiru Isah of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) had no basis in his appeal.
After reading the lead judgement, Justice Tijjani Abubakar declared that the appeal was not meritorious since the appellants had not filed the pre-hearing notice at the tribunal in accordance with Paragraphs 18(1) and (3) of the First Schedule to the Electoral Act 2022.
