The Abuja division of the Court of Appeal on Wednesday threw out an appeal challenging the nomination of Rabiu Kwankwaso as the APC Senator representing Kano Central Senatorial.
In a unanimous decision the Court upheld Kwankwaso’s nomination saying that the APC decision was final.
Suleiman Ibrahim Halilu had filed a pre- election case saying that he was the right candidate having scored second position during the primary.
The Federal High Court upheld a preliminary objection and dismissed the case. Unhappy, Halilu appealed to the Court of Appeal which was dismissed this afternoon.
