The Court of Appeal in Abuja has sacked Musa Ilyasu
Kwankwaso of the All Progressives Congress and reinstated Yusuf Umar Datti of
the New Nigeria People’s Party in the Kura/Madobi/Garun Malam Federal
Constituency Election.
The three-panel led by Justice Tunde Oyebamiji Awotoye
allowed an Appeal by Yusuf Datti and averred that the tribunal was wrong to
have counted the date of the Appellant’s resignation on the date of his party’s
primary election and that Section 77 of the Electoral Act was misapplied, saying
no court has jurisdiction on the issue of membership of the party.
