Alleged Certificate Forgery: Court Dismisses Suit Seeking To Disqualify Wike In Election

A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has dismissed the suit seeking to disqualify Mr Nyesom Wike from contesting the March 9 Governorship election in Rivers State over an alleged presentation of a forged statutory declaration of age.

In his judgement on Friday, Justice Edward Ekwo berated the plaintiff for gross abuse of court process, having filed a similar suit in Port Harcourt in 2018 which was dismissed by the court.
