The Supreme Court has affirmed the victory of Governor Bassey Otu of Cross River State at the March 2023 polls.
The court dismissed the appeal filed by Professor Sandy Onor and his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) with which they sought to remove Governor Otu of the APC.
In the lead judgment, Justice Helen Ogunwumiju held that the appellants failed to prove their case.
Justice Ogunwumiju proceeded to affirm the concurrent judgments of the election tribunal and Court of Appeal, which affirmed Otu’s election.
