The Supreme Court on Tuesday upheld the election of Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State.

The seven-man panel, lead by Justice Sylvester Nguta, dismissed the appeals filed by the former running mate of Mr. Audu, James Faleke and others. The justices stated that justification for their decision would be provided on September 30th.

The court’s decision, which was unanimous, made judicial history because the situation had never been accounted for in existing constitutional laws.
