The All Progressives Congress and the Independent National Electoral Commission have been instructed to recognize Bashir Machina as the party’s candidate for the Senate seat representing Yobe North.
This was the ruling of the Federal High Court in Damaturu on Wednesday in the legal tussle between Senate President Ahmad Lawan, and Machina, on who is the authentic candidate of the APC for the Yobe North senatorial seat.
Recall that INEC on August 9, 2022, refused to recognize Lawan and Senator Godswill Akpabio as APC senatorial candidates.
