GOVERNOR Yahaya Bello has accepted an Appeal Court judgement affirming Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan as the duly elected candidate for Kogi Central Senatorial District.
The Court of Appeal, Abuja Division, dismissed the appeal filed by Abubakar Ohere for lacking in merit as it upheld Akpoti-Uduaghan as the duly elected candidate in the Election held in February.
Governor Bello congratulated Akpoti-Uduaghan at the Aso Villa on Tuesday, and called on everyone in Kogi State to accept the appellate
court’s decision.
It will be recalled that the Kogi State Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Lokoja had nullified the victory of Ohere of the APC as the winner of the Kogi Central Senatorial Election in September.
Apparently not satisfied, Ohere headed to the appellate court to seek redress .
