A Federal High Court sitting in Jalingo, the Taraba State capital, has
disqualified Alhaji Sani Abubakar Danladi, the governorship candidate of
the All Progressives Congress (APC), in the state.
The ruling was issued on Wednesday.
The court based its decision on allegations of false declaration of age by
Danladi in the documents provided to the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC).
Danladi had represented Taraba North senatorial district in the National
Assembly on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
He, however, dumped PDP for APC in December 2017.
