A Federal High Court, sitting in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi State capital, on Thursday, nullified the recently conducted local government area election in the state.

The Presiding Judge, Justice Rilman Fatun, in a suit No. FHC/AI/CS/151/2022, ruled that the election was undemocratic, unlawful shrouded in secrecy.
