Taraba guber poll aisha al hassan goes to supreme court
Aisha Alhassan, also known as Mama Taraba, a former Minister of Women Affairs and a prominent politician from Taraba State, has indeed approached the Supreme Court to challenge the outcome of the 2019 governorship election in Taraba State.
In the election, Aisha Alhassan, who was the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), lost to Darius Ishaku, the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Ishaku was declared the winner by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and was subsequently sworn in as the Governor of Taraba State.
However, Aisha Alhassan has been disputing the outcome of the election, alleging that it was marred by irregularities and that she was robbed of her victory. She has been seeking redress through the courts, and her latest move is to approach the Supreme Court to challenge the outcome of the election.
It's worth noting that the Supreme Court is the highest court in Nigeria, and its decision is final and binding. If Aisha Alhassan's petition is successful, it could potentially lead to a rerun of the election or a change in the outcome of the election. However, if her petition is dismissed, it would likely bring an end to her legal challenges and confirm Darius Ishaku as the winner of the election.
The case is being closely watched by many in Nigeria, particularly in Taraba State, where the outcome of the election has significant implications for the state's politics and governance.
