The Supreme Court yesterday slammed the gubernatorial candidate of the Democratic Peoples Party, DPP, in the 2007 elections in Sokoto state, Alhaji Maigari Dingyadi, over what it described as a deliberate attempt by the appellant to create judicial anarchy in his bid to sack the incumbent governor, Aliyu Wamakko, from office.

FORMER Military President Ibrahim Babangida said yesterday that he would remain undaunted even though he was prepared to keep to the elements of the Consensus Agreement of the Mallam Adamu Ciroma led Committee that ex-vice President Atiku Abubakar as the preferred candidate for the north.

The Atiku Abubakar Campaign Organisation yesterday put the blame of the loss of Osun State by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, on former President Olusegun Obasanjo who the GROUP blamed for mismanaging the party’s fortunes in the South West.

GOVERNOR Rauf Adesoji Aregbesola of Osun State has promised to redirect the course of governance in the State in the direction of human and social development of the people after what he claims to be seven and a half years of directionless administration.

On a day that the Court of Appeal declared Engr. Rauf Aregbesola as the winner of the 2007 Osun State governorship elections, six months to the end of his supposed tenure after three and a half years of legal fisticuffs, President Goodluck Jonathan, former President of Pakistan, Gen. Pervez Musharaf and former Ambassador to the United Nations, Chief Arthur Mbanefo, have urged Nigerians to end election rigging by protecting their votes in the 2011 polls.
