An Appeal Court sitting in Lagos State will on Tuesday
(today) deliver judgment on the governorship election petition filed by the
governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers State,
Patrick Tonye-Cole, against Governor Siminalayi Fubara of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The judgment date is barely two weeks after the parties
argued and adopted their final written addresses.
Cole wants the court to direct INEC to declare him the
winner of the March governorship election in Rivers.
He insists that Fubara was still signing documents as
Accountant-General of the State even after his nomination as the governorship
candidate of the PDP.
He also alleged irregularities in the election, amongst
other pleas.
