Edo Elections: Igbinedion, Momoh, Idiaka, Others Lose In Appeal Court

The Appeal Court has dismissed the appeals filed by Omosede Igbinedion of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP), challenging the decision of the state election petition tribunal, which upheld the victory of Denis Idahosa of the All Progressives Congress(APC).

The Court of Appeal in Benin City, the State capital, also dismissed the petition of Hon. Ehiozuwa Agbonyinma of the APC challenging the election of Jude Ise-Idehen of the PDP for Ikpoba-Okha/Egor Federal constituency seat.

Justice Aseimo Moore Ademein, who read the judgments, said all the appeals lacked merit and thereby dismissed them.
