The Supreme Court has upheld the election of Yahaya Bello as the Governor of Kogi State.
The candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Kogi Governorship Election, Musa Wada had challenged the election victory of Governor Bello at the apex court on five grounds.
Wada claimed that the election held on November 16, 2019, was riddled with serious electoral infractions; rigging and over-voting, and that Governor Bello didn’t secure the highest vote.
The supreme court, however, disagreed with the appeal filed by the PDP governorship candidate, in its judgement delivered on Monday.
More details soon.
