By this ruling, the court has put to bed the lingering case of eligibility which has delayed the proceedings in the past.
Apart from this ruling, the court also determined other petition brought to it by the governor and his party PDP to dismiss the case.
TRIBUNAL refuses to grant the prayers of PDP and Wike to strike out APC petition

Also today, Justice Ambrosa did not grant the application for Forensic analysis by the APC. It is mandatory for parties to be allowed access to Electoral matetials used for election. It does not require an order of the tribunal.
