Kogi PDP Gover'ship Ticket: Court To Rule On Motion For Joinder, Adjourns Suit

The suit challenging the outcome of the PDP governorship primaries held on the 3rd September came up for defense at the Lokoja High Court on Friday.



The case which was presided over by Justice Richard Olorunfemi was adjourned to the 9th of January, 2020 for the court to rule on the application for motion to join Gov. Ahmed Fintiri and for defense.

The main challenger to the Peoples Democratic Party Governorship ticket, Abubakar Ibrahim, had insisted he is the rightful owner of the mandate.

The PDP primaries which produced Engr. Musa Wada ended abruptly when gun men invaded the venue of the primaries. The exercise was later completed with the counting and announcement of votes.
The Kogi State Governorship election was held on November 16 with Gov. Yahaya Bello, the incumbent governor winning a landslide.

The court however adjourned for the court to rule on whether Gov. Ahmed Fintiri, Gov. of Adamawa State and the Chief Returning officer in the PDP primary election and members of the committee be joined.
