The Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Yola, Adamawa State, has sacked
another lawmaker of the All Progressives Congress, Musa Bororo, for certificate
forgery.
Bororo was sacked over inconsistencies in his names as reflected on
different documents submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission.
Before the tribunal ruling, Bororo represented Mubi South in the Adamawa
State House Assembly.
Delivering the verdict, Justice Akanbi held that Bororo presented documents
with conflicting names to INEC and therefore ruled that “Musa Umar” was not the
same as “Musa Bororo”.
Justice Akanbi went ahead to order INEC to issue certificate of returned to
Yakubu Dirbishi of the Peoples Democratic Party as winner of the election for
the position.
Reacting to the ruling, Bororo disclosed that he will challenge the
judgement at the appellate court.
