Following a four hour judgement, the judge held that the petitioner was unable to prove INEC’s substantial non-compliance with the Electoral Act against Governor Oborevwori (second respondent).

Ahuchaogu also declared that Omo-Agege failed to demonstrate that Governor Oborevwori was not duly elected by majority of lawful votes cast.
