The long-drawn legal battle on the authenticity of the candidate for Jega-Aliero-Gwandu Federal Constituency of Kebbi State under the All Progressives

The apex court voided and dismissed the nomination of Kabir Labbo Jega, whose name was fraudulently submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, by the APC as its candidate.

The court, while dismissing the APC’s appeal, restored Mohammed Umar Jega as the lawful and authentic candidate that should be recognized by the APC and INEC. In the same vein, the purported nomination and submission of the name of Labbo Jega was thrown out by the court on the ground that he emerged the winner from the unlawful primary election conducted by the State Working Committee, SWC, of the party.
