The Supreme Court has declared Adamu Aliero authentic candidate of the People’s Democratic Party [PDP] for the Kebbi Central Senatorial District, ahead of the February 25 elections.
In a majority decision of four judges to one, the apex court set aside the judgments of the Federal High Court, Birnin-Kebbi, and the Appeal Court, which had affirmed Alhaji Haruna Dandio as the PDP candidate in the Senate race.
In the judgment prepared by Justice Chima Nweze and read by Justice Amina Augie, the Apex Court held that both lower courts had erred in assuming jurisdiction over the matter earlier, with the implication being that they had nominated the senatorial candidate instead of the party, a clear breach of the Electoral Act.
The Apex Court said after the PDP senatorial primary held on 24 May which Dandio purportedly won, another one was held on 9, June 2022 which Aliero won by 246 votes to Dandio’s 15 votes.
And the Supreme Court holds that the first defendant participated fully in the second primary; he had therefore waived his right to protest, and so there can be no allegations of irregularity based on his having participated in the exercise.
Similarly, the Apex Court has also declared former Senate Leader Yahaya Abdullahi the authentic candidate of the PDP for the Kebbi North Senatorial District, dismissing High Court and Appeal Court decisions to the contrary.
Citing Section 84 of the Electoral Act, Justice Augie stated that Senator Abdullahi’s case was one of substituting a candidate who had earlier withdrawn from the Senate race.
