The Supreme Court has reserved judgment in an appeal seeking to sack Kebbi State Governor, Dr Nasir Idris of All Progressives Congress (APC).
On Tuesday, Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun, who led a five-member panel of the apex court, announced, after lawyers to parties made their final submissions, that judgment was reserved and parties would be notified when it is ready for delivery.
The candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the last governorship election in Kebbi State, Major General Aminu Bande is by his appeal praying the court to set aside the judgment of the Court of Appeal, which affirmed Idris’ election as earlier done by the election tribunal.
Similarly, the apex Court also reserved judgment in the fierce legal battle over the governorship election of Nasarawa State.
The legal battle is between the incumbent governor, Abdullahi Sule of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and its governorship candidate, Hon Emmanuel David Ombugadu.
