Nasarawa Gov. Sule Drags His Party, APC, INEC to Court Following Sack by Tribunal
Nasarawa State Governor Abdullahi Sule has appealed the ruling of the Governorship Election Petition Tribunal (GEPT), which sacked him from office and declared David Ombugadu of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) the winner of the 2023 governorship election.
TrackNews reports that in a fresh appeal filed at the Court of Appeal in Makurdi, Benue State, Sule has named his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), as one of the respondents.
The other respondents are INEC and Ombugadu.
Sule is seeking an interpretation of the tribunal’s ruling, which was a split decision. Two of the three judges on the panel ruled in favour of Ombugadu, while the other judge affirmed Sule’s election.
In his appeal, Sule argues that the tribunal erred in its ruling and that he should be declared the rightful winner of the election.
It is understood that Ombugadu and the PDP have filed a cross-appeal against Sule’s appeal.
