As reported by the Leadership Newspaper, the appeal was filed by one of the gubernatorial aspirants Prof. Terhemba Shija.

While delivering the judgement, Justice Gabriel Abraham Georgewill said:

 

“After evaluating evidence submitted by Shija which among many is the Appeal panel report that sat after the primaries to hear issues of concern from the aspirants in Makurdi and made recommendations that the primary election was not valid.”

Meanwhile, GoldennewsNg  gathered the appellate court validated the APC gubernatorial rerun of 9th June, 2022 which was held in 12 local governments.

While validating the rerun, Justice Gorgewill said:

“Yes, I have seen that APC did not conduct a valid primary election on 27th May, 2022 reasons why the appeal panel ordered a fresh election that was conducted on 9th June, 2022 in some local governments.

In the interest of justice, I cannot allow those voters in the remaining 11 local government to be disenfranchised, therefore, APC should go back and conduct elections in eleven local government within 14 days and INEC should recognise the winner after adding both election results as the gubernatorial candidate of the party.”

However, the court also ruled that accumulated results from the validated rerun of 9th June 2022 should be added to the result of the fresh primary that will be conducted within 14 days.
