Appeal Court sacks Ohere, Natasha Akpoti Kogi Central Senator 

The Court threw out the appeal filed by Ohere for lacking in merit.

The Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal, has affirmed Natasha Akpoti-Uduagan (PDP) as the winner of the Kogi Central Senatorial Election conducted earlier in February.

The court on Tuesday, dismissed the appeal filed by Senator Abubakar Sadiku Ohere (APC, Kogi Central) for lacking in merit.

Recall that in September, the Kogi State Election Petition Tribunal in Lokoja had nullified the victory of the Senate Chairman Committee on Local Content, Ohere of the All Progressives Congress.

Ohere however, headed to the appellate court to seek redress but the court rejected his appeal and upheld Akpoti-Uduagan as the winner of the election.
