The Appeal Court sitting in Abuja, would deliver judgment on Tuesday, (today), on who is the rightful governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the November 16, 2019, governorship election in Kogi State.

The development was revealed by the spokesperson of the party, Bode Ogunmola, in Lokoja, the state capital on Tuesday.

Recall that the High Court in Lokoja, back in February had nullified the party’s primary and noted that the party has no governorship candidate for the November 16 Election.

Justice John Olorunfemi had ruled that the process of the primary conducted by the opposition party in the state was hasty and inconclusive.

It was gathered that the ruling by the State High Court prompted the warring factions in the case to head to the Appeal Court, Abuja Division.

Recall that the party’s main challenger and runner up at the party’s primary, Abubakar Ibrahim had dragged the party flag bearer Engr. Musa Wada to a Kogi State High court for allegedly smuggling 600 votes to pick the party’s ticket for the polls.
