Zamfara tribunal upholds Yari’s election

The election petition tribunal in Zamfara State has dismissed the petitions of the  All Progressive Grand Alliance(APGA)and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)  against the election of Governor Abdulaziz Yari. In the ruling, Justice Grace Onyebo said there were no facts to support the petitioners allegations that the governor was not duly elected. It further ruled that the petitioners were unable to establish that there was over voting during the 2015 April election in the state.
It would be recalled that the PDP, in its final written address before the governorship election tribunal, maintained that G

overnor Abdulaziz Yari and APC committed fraud during the election.
