The ruling from the election petition tribunal on September 28th, which deemed the results of the most recent governorship poll in Kaduna State inconclusive, has been overturned by the Court of Appeal in Abuja.
In a unanimous judgment on Friday, a three-member panel of the court held that, as against the finding of the tribunal, the election was conclusive and won by the All Progressives Congress (APC) whose candidate was Uba Sani.
The court held that there was no basis for the tribunal to have ordered the conduct of supplementary election in 22 polling units in seven wards in four Local Government Areas in Kaduna State.
