The Supreme Court in Abuja has cleared a former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Professor Chukwuma Soludo as the governorship candidate of the All Progressive Grand Alliance in the Anambra State governorship election scheduled for November sixth.
The apex court also returned Chief Victor Oye as the National Chairman of APGA.
The apex court, in a judgment of a five-man panel of justices dismissed the appeal filed by one Jude Okeke on the ground of being an abuse of the court process.
Justice Mary Peter Odili, who delivered the lead judgment, awarded a sum of one million naira to be paid by Jude Okeke to APGA and Victor Oye.
She also upheld the judgment of the Court of Appeal, Kano Division, which had earlier dismissed Okeke’s suit.
