Sokoto: PDP retrieves its victories, as Speak Court sacks 2 APC federal lawmakers

The Senator representing Sokoto South, Abubakar Tambuwal and Member representing Bodinga/Dange Shuni/Tureta Federal Constituency, Aliyu Shehu, both of the All Progressives Congress, (APC) have been sacked by the Court of Appeal in Sokoto.

Reports have it that the court ordered the return of the PDP candidates Ibrahim Danbaba for Senate and Balarabe Kakale for House of Representatives.

While delivering the judgement on Wednesday, the judge, Federich Oho, said Danbaba and Kakale’s appeals succeeded.

It was gathered that the PDP candidates had filed the appeals against the judgment of the Election Petitions Tribunal which had upheld the elections of Senator Tambuwal and House of Representatives member Aliyu Shehu.

With the latest verdict coming from the hugher court, Governor Tambuwal’s full control of Sokoto politics is coming to the know of all, a respondent told The DEFENDER.

He said  PDP’s victories were now being retrieved constitutionally.
