The Supreme Court on Tuesday sacked an All Progressives Congress, APC, House of Representatives member, representing Yola South/Yola North/Girei Federal Constituency of Adamawa State, Mustapha Usman.
A five-man panel of the court, in a unanimous judgment, upheld an appeal marked: SC/790/2019 from Abdulra’uf Abdulkadir Modibo also of the APC.
The apex court held that aside from that Usman forged his credentials, he also did not participate in the National Youth Service Corps scheme.
The five-man panel of the court, led by Justice John Okoro, also ruled that Modibo, who came second in the APC primary, should be issued a certificate of return by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
