A three-man panel of the Tribunal led by Justice M O Adewara had in a unanimous judgment of September 20 dismissed the petition by the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its candidate, Abubakar Danladi, on the grounds that the petitioners failed to prove their claims that the election was marred by irregularities and substantial non-compliance with the Electoral Act
In affirming the judgment of the Tribunal, the five-man panel of the Court of Appeal held that the appellant had no candidate in the March 9 election in Taraba State by virtue of the disqualification of its candidate, Abubakar Danladi, by the Jalingo division of the Federal High Court on March 6.
