The Supreme Court has affirmed the election of Usman Ododo of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the rightful winner of the Kogi State governorship election held on November 11, 2023.
The ruling came as a significant setback for the Social Democratic Party (SDP) and its candidate, Muritala Ajaka, who had challenged the election results.
A five-member panel of the apex court, led by Justice Sadiq Umar, delivered the judgment, dismissing the appeal filed by the SDP and Ajaka on the grounds that it lacked merit. The court resolved all three issues raised by the appellants in favor of Ododo and the APC.
