The Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja, yesterday, upheld the Federal High Court ruling, which held that the Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki did not forge his certificates with which he contested the 2020 governorship election.
Among members of the Appeal Court panel, which delivered the judgment in the case marked: CA/ABJ/CV/71/2021 between the All Progressive Congress (APC) and Godwin Nogheghase Obaseki are justices Stephen Adah and Mohammed Mustapha.
In its judgment, the court ruled that the lower court did not make mistakes and that the plaintiff and witnesses did not pin the first respondent to have forged his certificate.
It held that the judgment of the lower court was apt and clear, noting that the appellant performed abysmally and had not proved any case.
