A Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, elected member of the House of Representatives, Christian Abah, has lost his seat after a Federal High Court in Abuja today directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to invalidate the certificate of return earlier issued to him due to certificate forgery.
In his ruling, Justice Adeniyi Ademola, in the suit filed by Hassan saleh, contesting Abah’s eligibility to stand for the election, held that the allegation of certificate forgery levelled against the first respondent (Abah) has been proved to be true beyond reasonable doubts.
