Justice Bello Kawu of the Bwari high court, Abuja, on Friday refused to reverse the judgment of the court delivered in December which removed Ubah as a
Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Senator Ubah of the Young Progressive Party (YPP) was the lawmaker representing Anambra South district in the upper chamber of the National Assembly.

In the ruling on Friday, Kawu ordered that the candidate of the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) Mr. Obinna Uzoh who had challenged Ubah’s victory in the February 23, 2019 election be recognised as the winner.

He also ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to issue a certificate of return to Uzoh as the
senator-elect in the district.

Among other claims, the PDP candidate alleged that his YPP counterpart
presented a forged National Examination Council (NECO) secondary school certificate to INEC, which enabled him to contest the Anambra South senatorial election.

He also insisted that Ubah’s party should be disqualified for not conducting a primary for its candidates in the poll.

In his judgement, Justice Kawu sacked Ubah and declared that the
second defendant in the suit – the YPP – did not have the locus standi, and should not have participated in the election.
