Some top members of the All Progressives Congress (APC), have arrived at the Appeal Court in Abuja, ahead of the hearing of the March 18 Nasarawa State gubernatorial elections.
The Court of Appeal is set to deliver judgment on the Nasarawa State governorship dispute between the incumbent Governor, Abdullahi Sule of the APC, and David Ombugadu of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Prominent among them is the former APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Adamu; Nasarawa Deputy Governor, Dr. Emmanuel Akabe as well as former Information Minister, Labaran Maku.
Recall that the tribunal had sacked Sule and declared Ombugadu as the winner of the 2023 governorship election in the state.
