The Tribunal declared People’s Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the February 25 National Assembly election and petitioner in the matter, Hon. Cornelius Nnaji as the winner.

The Justice A.M. Abubakar-led panel nullified the election for non qualification of the declared winner of the election, Nnamchi to contest the election.

The Tribunal held that Nnamchi was not a member of the Labour Party (LP) when he contested the election, and in line with electoral laws cannot be a candidate in the election.

It held Nnamchi was not duly sponsored and qualified to contest the election under the Labour Party’s candidacy.
