The National and State Assemblies election petitions tribunal on Thursday upheld the election of the lawmaker representing Faskari/Sabuwa/Kankara federal constituency in the House of Representatives, Alhaji Dalhatu Tafoki, in this year’s rerun elections in Katsina State.
The three-member panel headed by Justice K.A Ojiaka dismissed the petition filed by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Alhaji Jamilu Muhammad, for lack of merit.
The tribunal also ordered Muhammad to pay a fine of N150,000 each to three respondents.
