The court of Appeal sitting in Sokoto has upheld the ruling of the election Tribunal which ruled that the Sokoto state governor, Aminu Tambuwal, duly won the governorship election of the state.
The court, however, awarded no cost against the Appellant.
The four member panel was led by Justice Husseini Muktar who read the unanimous decision Friday.
The Court dismissed the appeal citing lack of merit, and took time to resolve all knotty issues in favor of Tambuwal.
Ahmed Aliyu of the All Progressives Congress, APC had on October 16 2019 approached the appellate Court to nullify the ruling of the tribunal which gave Tambuwal victory. Tambuwal is of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
