Supreme Court Voids Andy Uba’s Candidacy In Anambra Gov Election
APC
The Supreme Court on Tuesday voided Senator Andy Uba’s participation in the last governorship election in Anambra State as the candidate of the All Progressives Congress.
A five-member panel of the court held that the APC breached its guidelines for the conduct of primaries and thus failed to conduct a valid primary from which Uba emerged as the party’s candidate.
The apex court affirmed the February 23, 2022 judgment of the Court of Appeal, which upheld the December 20, 2021 judgment by Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court, Abuja.
The Supreme Court dismissed the appeals filed by Uba and the APC – marked: SC/CV/240/2022 and SC/CV/241/2022.
