Court annuls APC primaries in Yobe, orders fresh primaries in 14 day
The Federal High Court sitting in Damaturu, Yobe State, on Wednesday nullified the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary elections held in Fika East and Jakusko state constituencies for noncompliance with the provisions of the Election Act, ordering the APC to conduct fresh primaries within 14 days.
The presiding judge, Justice Fadima Murtala, in her judgment, declared that the party has just been given only 14 days within which to conduct fresh primary elections for the two vacant positions.
The Yobe North APC senatorial aspirant, Abubakar Jinjiri, on Wednesday withdrew his suit against Bashir Sheriff Machina, APC senatorial candidate, the Independent National Electoral Commission, and the APC.
Justice Murtala in her judgment said that Jinjiri has the right to file the notice of withdrawal and that the notice of discontinuance was valid. She accordingly dismissed the case as prayed by counsel to Machina.
