The Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal sitting in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State, on Thursday, confirmed Mr. Udom Emmanuel of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as the duly elected governor of Akwa Ibom State.
The Tribunal, therefore, dismissed the case challenging the victory of the governor in the last election filed by Mr. Nsima Ekere, the state’s governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
