The Supreme Court has affirmed governor Usman Ododo of the All Progressives Congress, APC as winner of the office cycle election held in Kogi State on November 11.
This follows the dismissal of the appeal of Murtala Ajaka, candidate of the SDP who faults the outcome of the election.
In a unanimous judgment, the Apex Court upheld the decision of the Court of Appeal which on 27 May affirmed the election of Ododo.
The Apex Court panel said the allegation of substantial non-compliance with the Electoral Act was not proven by the SDP governorship candidate.
It further adds that allegations of age falsification and certificate forgery are pre-election matters, noting it’s the Federal High Court that has jurisdiction to hear such.
The Supreme Court therefore dismissed Ajaka’s appeal for lacking merit.
INEC had announced that Ododo polled a total of 446,237 votes to defeat Ajaka who came second with 259,052 votes.
