The Court of Appeal, Abuja Division, has affirmed the candidacy of Prof Charles Soludo as the governorship candidate of the All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) in the November 6 governorship election in the state.
The appellate court dismissed the appeal seeking the setting aside of the judgment of the Court of Appeal, Jigawa Division, sayng the court cannot sit as an appeal on a judgment delivered by the Kano division of the court.
It could be recalled that APGA has been engulfed in intra-party crisis, which has birthed factions, one led by Victor Oye and the other by Jude Okeke.
While Oye’s camp has Prof Charles Soludo as its governorship candidate for the November 6 election, the faction led by Okeke produced Chukwuma Umeoji.
