The Court of Appeal sitting in Enugu yesterday nullified the election of Senator Uche Ekwunife representing Anambra Central Senatorial District and ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to conduct fresh election within 90 days.
The court, however, upheld the elections of Senator Andy Ubah representing Anambra South, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, Enugu West, Senator Obinna Ogba, Ebonyi Central and Senator Gil Nnaji, for Enugu East.

The three-man appeal panel, led by Justice A.H. Yahya in nullifying the March 28 election of Ekwunife upheld the appeal filed by the candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Chief Victor Umeh, who challenged the judgment of the lower tribunal which had earlier upheld Ekwunife’s election.

The court held that “the perverse decision of the lower tribunal cannot stand. This appeal stands and INEC is hereby ordered to conduct fresh election in Anambra Central senatorial zone within 90 days.”
Reacting to the judgment, Umeh expressed appreciation to the Appeal Court for “dispensing justice without fear or favour.” He described the judgment as victory for democracy and rule of law.

Give details why Gil shouldn't have won. It's my Senatorial district and I'm interested in the outcome. I don't think that Nnamani is a good alternative though.

the only achievement of Gil since being in the Senate is building a wonderful edifice for himself, pls be sincere to yourself, nnamani I believe should also quit politics but looking at the other alternative, nnamani is far better.

everyone knows there was no election in Nike, agbakpa, and its environ.

Since its not a fight of Biafra freedom it doesn't concern me.

.

Chimaroke should retire from politics, he and Gil Nnaji are ineffective senators.
But truly, our judiciary has gone to the dogs; Nnamani clearly won that election.
