Appeal Court Sacks Zamfara Governor, Orders Rerun

The Court of Appeal in Abuja has voided the election of Governor Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had declared Lawal winner of the March 18 governorship election.
But the All Progressives Congress (APC) challenged the victory of Lawal.
The tribunal had upheld Lawal’s election, but the APC proceeded to the Appeal Court.
A three-member panel of justices today, November 16, annulled the victory of Lawal and ordered a rerun of the election in three local government areas.
The affected Local Governments are Maradun, Birnin Magaji and Bukuyun.
