I Will Proceed to Supreme Court Following Appeal Court judgment – Wike releases statement:
The Appeal Court Panel presided over Justice Dongban Memsem has ordered the re-run of the Rivers State Governorship Election within 90 days. However, my legal team has concluded plans to appeal the judgment to the Supreme Court.
I had earlier approached the appellate court to set aside the judgment of the tribunal, arguing that the lower court failed to consider the evidence – that a proper election took place in Rivers state on April 11 – tendered before it.
