News Alert:Supreme court Affirms election of Governor wike

News Alert: Supreme Affirms the election of Governor Nyesom wike of rivers state state as the duly elected governor of the state.

 Though, as it is a unanimous judgement by a seven man panel of the apex court, the reason for the judgement is to be listed on 12th Febuary.

Given the ruling on Wednesday, Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun set aside the later judgement as delivered by the Appeal court which nullified the election of the governor stating non-compliance of electoral rules.

It will be recall that the court of Appeal had on December 16 , 2015 struck out the application of Mr wike seeking a dismissal of the judgement of the rivers state election petition tribunal which apparently sacked Mr wike as governor of the state stating a total non compliance with the guidelines and provisions of the independent national electoral commission INEC.

Details soon
