Binani further argued that INEC usurped the powers of the election tribunal by nullifying the declaration originally made.

, popularly called Binani, has asked the Federal High Court in Abuja to stop the Independent National Electoral Commission from voiding an illegal declaration that named her as the governor-elect of the state.

The APC candidate was illegally declared the governor-elect of the state by the Resident Electoral Commissioner following last Sunday’s supplementary election in the state. According to Nigeria’s electoral law, the REC, Hudu Ari, has no power to announce the winner of the election. That responsibility solely lies with the state collation officer appointed by the Independent National Electoral Commission .PREMIUM TIMES gathered that results from the remaining local government had not been received by the INEC when the REC announced Mrs Dahiru as the winner.

She claimed the crisis that ensued forced INEC to void the original declaration naming her the governor-elect of the state. She added that INEC did not have the power to void a declaration made as only the election petition tribunal has the power to void such a declaration.

Why didn't you call Jaban own elegal or your balls dropped off.

Taking advantage of the deeply corrupt system.

Truly the credible elections APC promised Nigerians. Use 23hrs of the day to fear APC and use the remaining hour to fear their supporters.

This Binani woman must be high on something!

The Federal High Court should throw out her application, and direct her to take her grouses to the Elections Petitions Tribunal, after all after a declaration, whether legal or illegal declaration, it is the Tribunal that has the jurisdiction to entertain all grievances.

APC won't rest until they have taken us 100 years backwards. It's disheartening

Yet obedients are fascists...

APC are mocking Nigeria electoral process

Oga Nigeria Court has turn to caricature court

This is election matter...the court lacks jurisdiction as court of original jurisdiction but the election petition tribunal.

Madness !!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Wawu!

She has this audacity because Nigeria supports illegalities and evils. That REC is still walking around - a free man.

APC go to Court... Impunity!

Why is PremiumTimes describing the declaration 'illegal'? Without any competent court or election tribunal declaring so, you are calling for anarchy & its treasonous. PDP/INEC should go to court. If you dont have the balls to call Tinubu declaration illegal, dont call hers.

The country has been fed to the dogs Smh

See thief oooooh. My goodness

Why is it that anywhere illegality and fraud is seen or mentioned , u will find OfficialAPCNg there
