Rivers Crisis: Fubara wins as Appeal Court strikes out suit by pro-Wike LG Charmen

The Court of Appeal sitting in Port Harcourt has dismissed two appeals instituted by Local Government Chairmen loyal to the Minister of Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.

The appeals, marked CA/PH/137M/2024 and CA/PH/145M/2024, were filed by Enyiada Cookey-Gam and six others.

They were challenging the decisions of the High Court regarding the elongation of their tenure.

The Court, while delivering its ruling on Monday, found the appeals to be without merit and consequently struck them out.
