Aisha ‘Binani’ Dahiru-Ahmed has withdrawn a suit she filed against the Independent National Electoral Commission.
On Saturday, Mr Yunusa-Ari purportedly declared the Adamawa State governorship election winner while the results collation from some local government areas were yet to be concluded.
“We urge INEC to ensure the prompt conclusion of the process in line with provisions of the Electoral Act and other extant guidelines.”
“Here in Adamawa, we are witnesses to a novel practice in election management where a resident electoral commissioner announced the loser of an election as a winner.”
“It is even more absurd that the Adamawa REC did not only usurp the powers of the returning officer but attempted to declare a winner without figures.”
Two major political parties are contesting the results of the only holdout in Saturday’s governorship election in the northeastern state.
