The Appeal Court on Thursday overturned an earlier judgment declaring Prof. Jerry Gana the candidate of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, affirming former Cross Rivers State Governor, Donald Duke as the authentic presidential candidate for the party.
The court, in an unanimous decision by a three-man panel, led by Justice Abdul Aboki, set aside the December 14, 2018 judgment of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) which had declared Gana the candidate of the party. The court awarded N500,000 cost against Gana, in favour of Duke.
