Taraba Governorship: Appeal Court Reserves Judgment On Ishaku’s Election by lekanolas: 4:52pm On Dec 21, 2015
The Court of Appeal in Abuja on Monday reserved judgment in an appeal filed by Gov. Darius Ishaku of Taraba against the nullification of his electoral victory by a tribunal.

Justice Abdul Aboki said the court would later announce the date for the judgment in the appeal.

The appeal by Ishaku followed the judgment of the Taraba Governorship Election Petition Tribunal on Nov. 7 and awarded victory to Mrs Aisha Alhassan of APC.

Mr Kanu Agabi (SAN), Counsel to Ishaku, raised four issues in the appeal.

He said the petition was not accompanied by valid statements as the respondents claimed that it was the fault of the registry.

Agabi said the respondents claimed that the election was marred with corruption yet claimed victory in the election.

He said the respondents also pleaded that Ishaku was not sponsored by the party but later agreed that his sponsorship was not supported by any fact.

He complained that 51 witnesses of the appellant were not reviewed by the tribunal and urged their lordships to allow the appeal.

Mr Solo Akuma (SAN), Counsel to Peoples’ Democratic Party PDP and Mr Joseph Daudu (SAN), Counsel to INEC urged the court to allow Ishaku’s appeal.

However, Mr Abiodun Owonikoko (SAN), Counsel to Alhassan, filed a cross appeal, saying INEC had no right to clear a candidate for election.

He urged the court to dismiss Ishaku’s appeal and uphold the tribunal’s judgment.

Which one are we to believe now? Did the appellate court reserve judgement, or deliver it? Why are our media outlets reporting contradicting reports?

All i know for a Lady to become a Governor in that state is as difficult as anything. APC in collaboration with Atiku might make it happen but the people of that state might revolt against the decision because she is a woman.

It is saddening that our judiciary is under the influence of the ruling party, almost all resolved disputes between both parties have gone in favour of APC. Judgement is only being delayed for nothing, we know she will still win
