Wada rejects tribunal verdict as he heads for Appeal Court

                      

The immediate past governor of Kogi State, Capt. Idris Wada (PDP), has rejected the verdict of the governorship election petition tribunal which on Monday dismissed his petition challenging the emergence of Alhaji Yahaya Bello of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the state governor.


Wada who spoke through a special adviser, Jacob Edi, said he would appeal the tribunal ruling.

He said that as a believer in the country’s judicial, he will challenge the decision at the appellate court.

He stated: “We believe in the judiciary and we still have confidence in the judiciary of the country. Since the law of the land provides that we can still move ahead to a higher court, we will utilize the opportunities available to us.

“We know that the judiciary is the last hope of the common man, so we are definitely going to file our appeal and we are confident of getting judgment.”
