DAILY POST recalls that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, had declared Atigwe the winner of the re-run election.
But Agbo, who had earlier won the February 25th, 2023 election but was sacked by the appellate court proceeded to the tribunal to challenge Atigwe’s declaration and won the case, and too at the Appeal court.
