The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja has declared the March 18 governorship election in Zamfara State inconclusive.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had declared Dauda Lawal of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as the winner of the election.
The gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bello Matawalle, later challenged the outcome of the election at the tribunal but his petition was dismissed for lacking in merit.
Matawalle, who is now the Minister of State for Defence, was seeking re-election under the APC.
However, the Appeal Court, while delivering judgement on Thursday, November 16, declared the election as inconclusive and ordered INEC to hold a fresh election in two local governments.
