Plateau Election Tribunal Upholds Gov. Lalong’s Election

Channels Tv
The Plateau State governorship election petitions tribunal has affirmed the victory of Governor Simon Lalong in the April 11 governorship poll.
Gyang Pwajok of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and his party had dragged Lalong of the All Progressives Congress (APC) before the tribunal.
The PDP claimed that there were cases of irregularities during the polls, asking the panel to nullify the election and declare Pwajok as winner.
The tribunal, which ruled on the petition in Jos, the Plateau State capital, dismissed the petitioners’ petition for lack of merit.
Security operatives earlier barred journalists from entering the court room, saying they were acting on the orders of the panel.
