The National and State Assembly election petitions tribunal sitting in Umuahia, Abia State, has dissolved the election of Senator Orji Uzor Kalu.
The three-man tribunal led by Justice Cornelius Akintayo, ordered the supplementary election while giving judgment in a petition brought before it by the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Mao Ohuabunwa.
It’s reported that PDP candidate, Mao Ohuabunwa in the election, had challenged the victory of the Senate Chief Whip, Orji Kalu, in the senatorial seat.
Mr Orji Uzor Kalu was pronounced winner of the senatorial election by the returning officer, Dr. Charles Anumudu, which Ohuabunwa described as “excess electoral fraud and broad daylight robbery.”
