THE Supreme courtroom has dismissed the appeal by the Governor of rivers state Nyesom Wike and his party,(PDP), on the relocation of Rivers State governorship election petition tribunal to Abuja.
The apex courtroom, in a unanimous judgment yesterday, held that the appeal “lacked merit and substance”.
The court dismissed it “in its entirety”.
Justice Amiru Sanusi, read the judgment on the interlocutory appeal, upheld the decisions by the tribunal and the court of appeal that the tribunal’s relocation to Abuja from Port Harcourt, was so in order because it was informed by security challenges.
The tribunal last Saturday nullified Wike’s election in its judgment within the petition via the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its candidate, Dakuku Peterside.
