End Of The Road For Ndoma-Egba’s 4th Term Senate Bid
The Appeal Court sitting in Calabar has affirmed the victory of Sen. Sandy Onor (PDP) as lawmaker representing Cross River Central Senatorial District of Cross River in the National Assembly.
The court upheld the decision of the election petition tribunal in Calabar which had declared Onor as duly elected against Sen. Victor Ndoma-Egba of the APC in the Feb. 23rd National Assembly elections.
In the judgment delivered on Saturday in Calabar by the lead judge of a three man panel, Justice T. Abubakar, Justice P.O Elechi and Justice A.A Wambai, declared that the appeal by Ndoma-Egba lacks merit.
Ndoma-Egba was in the Senate previously for three terms between 2003 and 2015 on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

Agibe’s victory had earlier been declared at the election petition tribunal in Calabar against the candidate of the APC, Mr Victor Abang.
