The National Assembly Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Kaduna State has dismissed the petitions filed against two Peoples Democratic Party House of Representatives members.

The tribunal on Saturday dismissed the petitions instituted against David Gurara, who represents the Kachia/Kagarko Federal Constituency, and Bashir Shadow, a member representing the Kauru Federal Constituency, respectively.

The two federal lawmakers were returned elected in the House of Reps election conducted on February 25, 2023, by the Independent National Electoral Commission.

The two PDP members were dragged before the tribunal by the candidates of the All Progressives Congress, Gabriel Zock, and Mukhtar Zakari.

In his petition, Zock alleged that elections were not conducted in 43 polling units, asking the tribunal to nullify INEC’s proclamation and order for fresh elections.

Zakari had also instituted a petition against Shadow, alleging that he presented a forged school certificate.

Delivering judgment in the petition filed by Zock, the Chairman of the tribunal, Justice H.H. Kereng, declared that the petitioner failed to provide credible evidence to prove his case.

Also, while delivering judgment on Zakari’s petition, Justice Maiwada Abubakar dismissed the petition for lacking merit.
