Court of Appeal Dismisses Uche Nnaji’s Appeal Against Governor Peter Mbah
The Court of Appeal sitting in Enugu has dismissed the appeal brought by the APC governorship candidate in Enugu State, Mr. Uche Nnaji, against the decision of the Enugu Governorship Election Petition Tribunal, saying the appeal lacked merit.
The court which delivered its ruling on Tuesday via Zoom stressed that the APC governorship candidate was out to waste the time of the court with a frivolous suit.
The Appeal Court justices subsequently, while throwing out the appeal, slammed the APC and Uche Nnaji with a cost of N250,000 each for wasting the time of the court.
While noting that the tribunal was right in dismissing. Nnaji’s appeal, challenging the victory of the PDP, the court berated Nnaji and his lawyers for being lazy in pursuing their suit.
According to the court, all the grounds of appeal were resolved against the appellants in favour of the PDP and Governor Mbah.
