Anxiety as Appeal Court delivers judgement on Taraba APC guber ticket
The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), will today, Thursday, decide on the case between the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate for Taraba State, Senator Emmanuel Bwacha and the Senator representing Taraba Central, Yusuf Abubakar Yusuf.
A Federal High Court, sitting in Abuja, had earlier nullified the APC primary election that produced Senator Bwacha for the 2023 general election.
Justice Obiora Egwuatu, who gave the said judgement, ruled that the submissions presented before him by the two parties indicated that the “purported governorship primary of the party was a nullity.”
Apart from nullifying the primary, the judge ordered that a fresh primary election be conducted within fourteen days of the ruling.
Not comfortable with Egwuatu’s judgement, Bwacha, who is also the incumbent Senator representing Taraba South, appealed the judgement.
