The court of Appeal has declared the Labour Party candidate, Thaddeus Atta, as the duly elected House of Representatives member representing Eti Osa Federal Constituency in Lagos State.
Recall that the National Assembly Elections Petition Tribunal sitting at Tafawa Balewa Square, Lagos, had in September declared the election inconclusive.
The tribunal ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to conduct a supplementary election within 90 days in 33 polling units where elections were not held.
However, on Tuesday the court of Appeal overturned the verdict of election tribunal and ruled that elections in Eti-Osa were conclusive.
In the said election, famous Nigerian singer and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate, Bankole Wellington, known as Banky W, finished second and Ibrahim Babajide Obanikoro, the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) finished third in the elections according to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC)
