In a momentous verdict, the Supreme Court has affirmed Nasir Idris of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the duly elected governor of Kebbi State.



The unanimous judgment was delivered by a five-member panel of the apex court on Friday, dismissing the appeal lodged by Bande Aminu, who contested as the candidate of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) in the last governorship election in the state.


Justice Uwani Abba-Aji, who read the lead judgment, declared that the appeal was devoid of merit. The decision brings finality to the legal contestation surrounding the Kebbi State governorship election, solidifying Nasir Idris's position as the legitimate governor.


The apex court's unanimous ruling emphasizes the adherence to due process and legal principles in determining the outcome of electoral disputes. As Nasir Idris continues his tenure as the governor of Kebbi State, this judgment marks a pivotal moment in the political landscape, reaffirming the importance of the judiciary in upholding the integrity of the electoral process.
