Court Dismisses Udom Emmanuel’s Appeal, Voids Poll In 18 LGAs by simongonner: 2:45pm On Dec 18, 2015
‎A five-man panel of the Court of Appeal in Abuja has dismissed the appeal filed by Akwa Ibom State Governor, Mr. Udom Emmanuel, challenging the October 21, 2015 judgment of the state Governorship Election Petition Tribunal which nullified his election in 18 out of the 31 Local Government Areas in the state.

Still being awaited is the judgment on the appeal by the All Progressives Congress’ candidate, Mr. Okon Umana, asking for an order nullifying the election conducted on April 11, 2015 in the entire 31 local government areas.

Earlier the appeal court had dismissed an interlocutory appeal by Emmanuel challenging the competence of Umana and the APC to file petition challenging the outcome of the April 11 poll at the tribunal.

We all know that PDP rigged all their elections. At this rate they will have only 7 governors left!

Electoral malpractices should no longer be tolerated in this country. We cannot just watch a few people steal the wishes of our people.

Great development!

If I am in Gov Udom 's shoes I will simply face the Polls to win this squarely. I can't sleep properly when there is a pending problem to be solved maybe it's because of my engineering background.
Why appeal to Supreme Court when I can win it clearly? Except if he didn't execute massive developments in these few months

That is the advice I give to Yahaya Bello of Kogi. From day 1, commence massive developments even if it's on 'IOU'. The Judgement can always swing either way. If it swings against you that it is a rerun, you would have won the hearts of ordinary people

Nigeria's problem isn't corruption but sheer hypocrisy. When sucklings turned out enmasse in many northern states to vote for your general integrity, what did you say? Im sure the term electoral malpractice only applies to some states down south. In mama peace' voice, apc should continuu

That's good news. Let us all say no to electoral malpractices. That is one of the major reasons why we have rogues in leadership positions in the country. If the people of Akwa Ibom wants Udom to be their Governor, they will vote him in again.

This is an APC court in Abuja as usual. We need a Nigerian courts so that justice will prevail.

SS and SE is a no go area for APC. The should stop their forceful intimidation.

I don't even care about the man called Udom . I didn't vote for him and won't vote for him in the re-reun if am available for personal reasons. But what usually disgust me is all these people in the west esp in Lagos believing that Umana O. Umana of APC will win Akwa Ibom State. It's very funny.
