The tribunal on Monday 11th September, 2023 dismissed the petition filed by Mr Chijioke Ikpo of the All Progressive Congress (APC), challenging the declaration of Onwusibe of the Labour Party, as the winner of that election by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Similarly, the tribunal also dismissed the petition of Prof ACB Agbazuere of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) for lack of merit.
