• Others to follow on FridayIndependent National Electoral Commission yesterday declared the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party winners of the 2019 National Assembly, Governorship and State legislative elections in Zamfara State.
Yakubu said that following the court ruling, the Commission had met in two emergency sessions and taken briefings from its lawyers and staff on the implementation of the judgment. “In compliance with the Supreme Court judgment, the Commission has now determined the winners of the elections in Zamfara State as follows:
Also declared winners of the House of Representatives election were Shehu Ahmed for Bungudu/Maru federal constituency; Kabiru Yahaya-Anka/Talata Mafara; Ahmed Bakura -Bakura/Maradun; and Sulaiman Gumi for Gummi/Bukkuyum federal constituency. Recalling the events that led to the new development, Yakubu said: “You may all recall that the Commission issued the Timetable and Schedule of Activities for the 2019 general elections on 9thJanuary 2018, over one year in advance.
“However, since the elections were completed, a Court of Appeal judgment and now a Supreme Court judgment have determined that the APC did not conduct valid primaries for the elections in question. In its judgment delivered on 24thMay 2019, the Supreme Court, having determined that the APC did not conduct valid primaries, said that the votes cast for the party in all the elections in question were “wasted” and ordered the Commission to recognize the runners-up as the winners.
