BREAKING: Again, court nullifies PDP governorship primary election in Zamfara

The Federal High Court sitting in Gusau, Zamfara State has again nullified the governorship primary election of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) which produced Dauda Lawal Dare.

The presiding judge, Justice Aminu Bappa also ruled that the party will not field any governorship candidate for the 2023 governorship election.

DAILY POST reports that the court had in September 2022 nullified the party’s governorship primary election that produced Dauda Lawal Dare for some irregularities.

The court said it nullified the election because women were not represented as delegates which made the party conduct fresh elections with women delegates.

However, in the rerun primary election, Dauda Lawal Dare also won with over 400 votes and one of the contestants, Shehu Bakaoye again rejected the governorship primary election.

All efforts to contact members of Dauda Lawal Dare’s camp proved abortive as they did not pick their calls.
