Yobe APC to appeal judgment recognising Machina as senatorial candidate

 

The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Yobe state says it will appeal the court verdict affirming Bashir Machina as the party’s candidate for Yobe north senatorial district.

On Wednesday, a federal high court directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to recognise Machina as the APC candidate for the senatorial district.

Subsequently, Senate President Ahmad Lawan accepted the verdict and said he would not appeal.
