Akwa Ibom State Governor Umo Eno has urged the Court of Appeal sitting in Lagos to dismiss the appeal brought before it by Senator Bassey Akpan of the Young Progressives Party (YPP).

He prayed to the court to uphold the decision of the lower court, which declared him the winner of the governorship election of March 18, 2023. YPP and Senator Akpan, in appeal number CA//C/EP/GOV/AKW/24/2023, are challenging the judgement of the Governorship Petitions Tribunal in Uyo, which confirmed Eno as the validly elected Governor of Akwa Ibom State.

' The appellants, jointly represented by Tunde Falola, held that they were dissatisfied by the ruling and judgement of the tribunal upholding the preliminary objections of the respondents and dismissing the petition, hence the appeal.
