The court affirmed the ruling of a Federal High Court in Jalingo which sacked Bwacha as the APC’s governorship candidate in September 2022 in a suit filed by David Sabo Kente, a governorship aspirant
A five-member panel led by Kudirat Kekere-Ekun delivered the judgment on Wednesday.
The apex court held that the APC did not conduct any valid governorship primary in Taraba State that produced Bwacha, a member of the Nigerian Senate as governorship candidate.
