The election of Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has been nullified by the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja, affirming the October 24 verdict of the Rivers Governorship Election Tribunal.
Justice M. B. Dongban-Mensem, who led a five-man Appeal Court panel, said the election of Wike as the governor of Rivers State on April 12, 2015, failed to conform with the provisions of the electoral act. It therefore ruled that another election should be in the state within 90 days.
