The FCT Area Council Election Appeal Tribunal, Saturday, upheld the election of Hon. Christopher Zakka Maikalangu of the Peoples Democratic PARTY (PDP) as Chairman of Abuja Municipal Area Council (AMAC).
In a unanimous judgement, the three-man tribunal dismissed the August 5 judgment of the FCT Area Council Election Tribunal, which declared Hon. Murtala Karshi of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as winner of the election held on February 12.
The judges said that the judgement of the lower tribunal was not only evil, but negates all the achievements recorded in Nigeria’s democracy.
