The Adamawa State election petition tribunal has dismissed a petition filed by senator Binta Masi Garba the candidate of APC in the February 2019 senatorial election in Adamawa north senatorial zone.
Garba has approached the tribunal challenging the victory of Senator Cliff Abbo of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) in the election.
Delivering the ruling on Thursday, the lead Judge, Justice S B Akanbi said the petitioner, failed to produce sufficient evidence to prove her case beyond reasonable doubt prompting him to dismiss the case for lack of merit.
The petitioner had earlier alleged that the respondent was not duly elected saying the election that brought him was marred by massive irregularities.
