The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja has fixed Thursday, November 23 2923 for judgment in the Nasarawa State gubernatorial election dispute between the incumbent Governor, Abdullahi Sule of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and David Ombugadu of the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
Nasiru Alhassan, the Electronic Desk Officer of the Appellate Court, made this known in a notice sent to parties via text message.
According to the notice, the judgment is scheduled to be delivered by 9am by the Appellate Court.
However, only ten supporters of each of the two political parties will be allowed to enter the premises of the Appeal Court.
Recall that the Governorship Election Petition Tribunal (GEPT) had sacked Governor Sule and declared PDP’s Ombugadu as the winner of the 2023 gubernatorial election in the state.
Sule, unsatisfied with the judgement, filed an appeal to set aside the judgment of the tribunal and affirm his election as announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission, (INEC).
