Elisha Abbo, sacked Adamawa North senator, has fingered Senate President Godswill Akpabio in the appeal court ruling which removed him from the office.

The Court of Appeal in Abuja voided the election of Abbo of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had declared Abbo winner of the February 25, 2023 parliamentary election, but Amos Yohanna, his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rival, rejected the result and headed for the court.

The tribunal, in its judgement, dismissed Yohanna’s petition for lacking in merit.

The PDP’s candidate, through his counsel Johnson Usman (SAN), approached the Appeal Court.

The Court of Appeal, after hearing arguments from parties, agreed with Usman that based on Section 137 of the Electoral Act, 2022, the results tendered clearly showed that there was no compliance with the Electoral Act.

The court, thereafter, deducted the invalid votes from the parties and found that Yohanna and PDP won the election by majority of lawful votes.

The three-member presided over by Justice Chioma Egondu Nwosu-Iheme, in a judgement, ordered INEC to issue a Certificate of Return to Yohanna as validly elected lawmaker for the senatorial district.

Reacting to the court’s ruling, Abbo said four other senators who worked against the emergence of Akpabio as Senate President had been targeted for removal from the Red Chamber through the court.

In an interview with reporters on Monday in Abuja, Abbo specifically mentioned Senator Orji Uzor Kalu (APC Abia North) as the next target for removal from the Senate.

“I have it from a reliable source that myself and four other senators within the fold of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) will be removed from the Senate through rulings from the courts, all because of working against the emergence of Akpabio as President of the 10th Senate.

“I won’t mention the names of all the four other ones targeted but the next in line is Senator Orji Uzor Kalu,” he said.

He wondered how with over 11,000 votes margin of victory he had above his closest river, Yohanna Amos Yohanna of the Peoples Democratic Party in the election, the Appeal Court upturned his victory.

“The court judgement is strange and the judiciary needs to please remain the last hope of the common man,” Abbo said.

He, however, appealed to his ers to remain calm, vowing to recontest in 2027.

Efforts made to get the reaction of Akpabio to the allegation did not yield result at the time of filing this reort.

He should please go and rest joor. When he was doing street fight with his constituents, fighting in toy shop, having marital scandals, fighting his APC excos and refusing to campaign for his party's presidential candidate, he didn't know that he was alienating himself and his sack was just a matter of time. Smh

Is this fool suggesting that the Judiciary has been compromised?

Does he understand by extension, it means the legislators are also corrupt?

It appears people don't even understand what shouldn't be uttered.

intimacy gadget shop senator

I knew it...the party left him to the wolves for going against its choice in the Senate leadership tussle. I wouldn't say he didn't deserve it, because if you want to dine with the devil, you are going to need a very strong and long spoon.

What a nonsense Republic

Any politician who is not sympathetic to the masses on the high cost of living in the present day Nigeria Is free to get removed and never come back again. Akpabio deserves to be removed also. The President of the enjoyment Senators.

Rumble in the Jungle!😯😯

Instead of this USELESS Tinubu/APC Govt to try deliver some of their Promises,
They have been Engaging in one FOOLISH Acts or another! 🙁😒

In a serious country, is Elisha abbo supposed to be anything near civil service not to talk of senate.
How a man fighting over a sextoy be honourable. Is anything honourable about his rectangular head?

This 2023 election was nonsense. It was really a showdy job. Just the the numbers of court cases from all over the country, it's just too much.

Or is it that many people's eyes just opened to going to court after election. The cases too plenty abeggg.
