Nullifying the electoral victory of Sen. Abubakar Ohere, the ruling was delivered by Justice K. A. Orjiako, the Tribunal Chairman, who pronounced the unanimous judgment of the three-man panel.
Justice Orjiako’s verdict shed light on several critical aspects of the election. The tribunal found that Sen. Abubakar Ohere’s results were inflated in nine polling units located within Ajaokuta Local Government Area (LGA).
Additionally, it was revealed that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) intentionally reduced the votes of Natasha Akpoti-Uduagan in the same local government area. Furthermore, INEC failed to record results from three other polling units in the same LGA, which were deliberately omitted from Natasha’s tally.
