On Monday, the Court of Appeal in Port Harcourt dismissed two appeals instituted by Local Government Chairmen loyal to the Minister of Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.
New Telegraph reports that the appeals, marked CA/PH/137M/2024 and CA/PH/145M/2024, were filed by Enyiada Cookey-Gam and six others challenging the decisions of the High Court regarding the elongation of their tenure.
