Nigeria’s Supreme Court has affirmed the election of Bassey Otu As the Governor Of Cross River State.
In a ruling on Friday, the apex court upheld the Appeal Court and the Election Petition Tribunal’s rulings, which upheld Otu’s election as the governor of the state.
Recall that Otu defeated his closest opponent, Senator Sandy Onor of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP,) who polled 179,636 votes, to be proclaimed the winner of the governorship election by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Otu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate, scored a total of 258,619 votes and won in 15 of the state’s 18 local governments.
