The Supreme Court has dismissed the appeal by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Jeremiah Useni, challenging the election of Governor Simon Lalong of Plateau state in the March 9, 2019 governorship election.

In the lead judgement by Justice Adamu Galinje, the Supreme Court held that the appeal failed to establish allegations against Governor Lalong and APC.

The panel unanimously ruled that the allegation of substantial non-compliance with the Electoral Act and INEC Guidelines in the election, non-qualification and false information were not proved.

The panel said the claim that Governor Lalong did not disclose his former name, which was Simon Sule Lalong, which was later changed to Simon Bako Lalong in a publicised ‘change of name’ publication is not of a substantial nature to have his status.

The Supreme Court has upheld the election of Bala Mohammed of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as Governor of Bauchi State.

A seven-man panel of the court was unanimous in holding that the appellants, Mohammed Abubakar and his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) failed to prove their case.
Justice Dattijo Mohammed, who read the lead judgment, dismissed the appeal for lacking in merit.

Is it a bad thing? Is he not a failure like ikpeazu and bello? His removal will be greeted with massive celebration although he will likely win

For Bauchi -
This is the beauty of democracy. It shows that the Supreme Court judges have refused to be intimidated by Buhari. Kudos to the Judiciary for resisting intimidation by the Presidency.
This is the rule of law at play.


For Plateau -
Buhari has killed democracy in Nigeria. Tanko is the worst CJN Nigeria has ever produced. Democracy is dead in Nigeria. The Supreme court under Tanko must reverse itself. PDP won that election in Plateau.
APC has destroyed the Supreme Court.


Thoughts of a wailer;
same day, same hour, same minute, same second.

Wow! I can't believe this. Meanwhile, the SC has been playing chess games and toying with our emotions. The result of Kano ruling declaring mallam Gandollar as winner says it all. cheesy

Anybody that believes in this APC led govt is on a long thing tongue
