This followed the judgement of the Appeal Court, which declared her as the winner of the February 25 parliamentary election.
The three-member panel, in a judgment, upheld the judgment of the state’s election petitions tribunal and dismissed the appeal filed by Abubakar Ohere of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
