However, the Supreme Court judgment has laid to rest all disputes surrounding the governorship election result in the state.

The APC had asked the tribunal to annul the election of Fintiri because his election did not comply with provisions of the Electoral Act.

However, the tribunal-led by Justice Adediran Adebara, declared that the petition lacked merit.
