Breaking News: Tribuna Sacks Taraba's Speaker by Blacksodje(m): 7:07pm On Oct 29, 2015 |
The election petition tribunal sitting in Jalingo has
nullified the election of the Speaker of the Taraba
State House of Assembly, Hon Abel Peter Diah.
Delivering judgment on Wednesday in the petition
filed by the All Progressives Congress (APC)
candidate for Mbamga state constituency, Mr.
Emmanuel Bongo, the tribunal ordered the
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)
to withdraw the certificate of return issued to the
Speaker pending the conclusion of elections in eight
polling units in the constituency.
The APC candidate had filed a petition before the
tribunal challenging the victory of Hon Diah on the
grounds that election in nine polling units of the
constituency did not conform substantially to the
provisions of the Electoral Act.
In the ruling, which was
read by Justice A.M Ali,
on behalf of the three
man panel of justices, the tribunal held that
election in eight polling units out of the total 48
polling units did not conform substantially with the
provisions of the Electoral Act 2010 as amended
and therefore, ordered the INEC to conduct fresh
election in the eight polling units within 90 days. source: http://dailypost.ng/2015/10/29/tribunal-sacks-taraba-speaker/ |
