Similarly, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) have also approached the appellate court asking it to reverse the tribunalβs judgement.
In their separate appeals, the appellants prayed the court to uphold that the conduct of the governorship election and its outcome which produced Diri as governor complied with relevant laws.
