Adamawa North Senatorial District All Progressives Congress (APC) member Sen. Elisha Abbo was removed from office on Monday by an Appeal Court in Abuja. A three-judge panel headed by Justice C.E. Nwosu-Iheme ruled that Rev. Amos Yohanna of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was duly elected to represent the district as a senator. The panel directed INEC to produce Yohanna a Certificate of Return as proof of his election. On February 25th, INEC announced that Abbo had won the senate election. Dissatisfied with the outcome, Yohana and the PDP appealed the decision to the National and State Houses of Assembly Election Tribunal in Yola, Adamawa State. The court found Yohanna’s appeal to be without merit and rejected it. Reverend Amos Kumai Yohanna and another vs. Ishaku Elisha Cliff and others, appeal number CA/YL/EP/AD/SEN/06/2023, was filed with the Appeal Court by the PDP candidate and his lawyer Johnson Usman,SAN, who were both displeased with the tribunal’s judgement. After hearing arguments from both sides, the Court of Appeal agreed with Usman that, under Section 137 of the Electoral Act, 2022, the results tendered demonstrated that there was no conformity with the Act. After subtracting the number of illegitimate votes from each party’s total, the court declared Yohanna and the PDP the winners. The court voided Abbo’s Certificate of Return, declaring Yohanna the rightful senatorial representative of Adamawa North, and ordering INEC to do the same. Sam Ologunorisa, SAN, responded to the ruling by saying he had nothing to add because “the Court of Appeal is the final court.” Michael Numa, SAN, an attorney representing the APC, declined to comment until he had seen the ruling. “I was not present when the verdict was announced. So, I need to see the judgement before offering any sort of opinion on it,” he remarked. Justices M.I. Sirajo and O.A. Adegbhinde.kk are also on the panel.

Dr. Agbu Kefas, governor of Taraba State, has promised the Nigerian military his administration will do everything in its power

 Dr. Cosmas Ikechukwu, Convener of The Change We Need Nigeria Initiative (TCWNNI), has encouraged politicians to deliver good governance rather than palliatives to mitigate the effects of the elimination of gasoline subsidies. The remark was delivered by Ilechukwu, the General Overseer of Charismatic Renewal Ministries (CRM), at the 14th edition of the TCWNNI Project in Abuja. “What Nigerians require is good governance, not palliatives.” “If things are done well, we don’t need palliatives,” he went on to say. He stated that it was past time for Nigerians to demand responsibility and good governance from their federal and state leaders. “We must demand it because it is our right.” If we ask others to lead us, we expect them to do so successfully. “That is the heart of the social compact. “Let the common wealth we have bequeathed to you be used for the benefit of all.” Ilechukwu stated that while there had been minor changes in the country since the project’s commencement, much more work remained to be done.   “But we are unafraid, and we remain strong.” “Prayer contains an element of perseverance.”So, if you prayed today but did not receive all of the blessings you requested, keep praying because we know we are praying to a God who answers prayers. “So everything we’ve ever wished for will come true.” “That is my faith,” he explained. According to the priest, the programme was held to pray for the country’s leaders to govern well. Dr Robert Agbahia, Chairman of the event’s Local Organising Committee, stated that the TCWNNI Project was a yearly event held every October in which people gathered to pray for Nigeria’s prosperity.
