Just In: Nwaoboshi Reclaims senate Seat, as Supreme Court sacks Ned Nwoko
July 16 18:53 2019 Print This Article

The Supreme court on Tuesday sacked Ned Nwoko as Senator representing Delta South Senatorial seat and returned Senator Peter Nwaoboshi to the Nigeria Senate.

Nwaoboshi and Nwoko had been involved in a legal tussle over who should represent Delta South Senatorial election on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The Supreme Court in its ruling agreed with the court of appeal which declared Nwoboshi as the validly elected senator representing Delta South.

Ned Nwoko had approached the apex court challenging the earlier ruling of the court of appeal which declared Nwoboshi as the winner of the election.

The appeal court’s ruling was against the ruling of the high court which declared Ned Nwoko as the duly elected senator representing the senatorial district.
