The Court of Appeal sitting at National Industrial Court Complex, Lagos State, on Thursday upheld the ruling of the National Assembly Election Petition Tribunal in Akwa Ibom state which affirmed the victory of Martins Esin as the member of the House of Representatives for Oron/Mbo/Okobo/Udung Uko/Urueoffong Oruko Federal Constituency in the February 2023 elections.
The tribunal chaired by Justice Kudirat Jose on September 1, 2023 threw out Edumoh's petition, ruling that the petitioner could not prove any of his allegations bordering on over-voting, non transmission of results electronically, widespread irregularities and non compliance with provisions of the Electoral Act. Dissatisfied by the ruling, the APC candidate approached the appellate court, asking it to set aside the verdict of the tribunal.
