The Supreme Court, on Friday, dismissed the appeal of the Social Democratic Party candidate, Muritala Ajaka, in the Kogi State governorship election.

Ajaka had challenged the result announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission after the November 11, 2023 election which produced Usman Ododo of the All Progressives Congress as the winner.

A five-member panel of the apex court, in a unanimous decision, affirmed Ododo’s victory as the panel refused to void the election as requested by Ajaka.
