365Daily – The Court of Appeal sitting in Benin, Edo State, on Wednesday, May 26, 2021, upheld the victory of Govenor Godwin Obaseki.
This followed the dismissal of a case filed by the Action Democratic Party (ADP), seeking to quash Godwin Obaseki’s election held on September 19, 2020, which declared him winner.
The case, which sought Obaseki’s disqualification on grounds of alleged certificate forgery and dual party nomination, was thrown out by the Presiding Judge, Hon. Justice M.A. Owoade, for lacking in merit.
The ADP had also lost its case at the state election petition tribunal on the same ground.
