In a divided ruling on Friday, the Lagos Division of the Appeal Court upheld Prince Dapo Abiodun’s reelection as the legitimate governor of Ogun State on March 18, 2023.
On the other hand, the appeal was granted in the minority ruling by Justice Jane Esienanwan Inyang, who also mandated that a new election be held by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) within ninety days.
Meanwhile, the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja also affirmed the election of Governor Uba Sani of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as duly elected Governor of Kaduna State.
In ruling on Friday, a three-man panel of justices dismissed the appeal filed by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Isa Ashiru, against the election victory of Governor Sani.
