The Court of Appeal, Jos Division, on Friday, affirmed the victory of Governor Bala Mohammed and dismissed the All Progressives Congress and its candidate, former Governor Mohammed Abubakar’s appeal challenging his victory as the duly elected governor of Bauchi State.

While delivering its judgement on Friday, the five-man panel dismissed all the four grounds of appeal filed by the All Progressives Congress, APC and its defeated gubernatorial candidate in the election, Mohammed Abdullahi Abubakar.

Reading the judgement, Justice O. A Otisi held that all the grounds of appeal filed before the court by the appellants lacked merit and thereby dismissed them.
