Kogi Governorship Election Petition Tribunal has declared Usman Ododo as the duly elected Governor of the state.
Gatekeepers News reports that the three-member tribunal led by Ado Birnin-Kudu held that the Social Democratic Party (SDP) and its governorship candidate, Murtala Ajaka, failed to provide sufficient evidence to support their allegations against the respondents.
Birnin-Kudu said the election “was conducted in substantial compliance with the Electoral Act”.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) announced Ododo, candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), as the winner of the Kogi governorship election held on November 11, 2023.
Ododo polled 446,237 votes to defeat Ajaka who came second with 259,052 votes; and Dino Melaye of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who scored 46,362 votes.
