The Supreme Court has this Wednesday dismissed (throway) an appeal by the Social Democratic Party, SDP, and its candidate in the Adamawa governorship election, Umar Ardo.
This came after the counsel for the candidate prayed the court to withdraw the case after which the five-member panel led by John Okoro subsequently dismissed the appeal.
Recall that the Court of Appeal in Abuja and the tribunal had dismissed Ardo’s petition challenging the victory of Ahmadu Fintiri.
Fintiri is now left with the appeal filed by the All Progressives Congress and its candidate, Aishatu Dahiru, seeking to be declared the governor of the state.
