The governorship election tribunal in Delta State has dismissed the petition of the Labour Party’s candidate for failure to apply for “pre-hearing” notice”.

This has sparked wild jubilation in the camps of Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori and his supporters.

The tribunal, which sits in Asaba, the state capital, dismissed the Labour Party’s petition in the early hours of today.

Meanwhile, the All Progressives Congress (APC) said its petition, filed by its candidate, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, is well grounded in law and facts, not sentiment.
