Upholding Democracy: The Verdict's Impact on Plateau North Elections

 Upholding Democracy: The Verdict's Impact on Plateau North Elections**
The recent decision by the Court of Appeal in Abuja reverberates throughout the political landscape of Plateau North Senatorial District and Jos North/Bassa Federal Constituency. On December 8th, 2023, Justice Haruna Tsammani led the court in dismissing the application for a review filed by GYANG ZI and MOHAMMAD GWANI. This pivotal ruling solidifies the ground for an imminent rerun election, reinforcing the integrity of the democratic process in the region.

The focal point of contention revolved around the participation of all parties in the upcoming rerun election, as directed by the Court of Appeal following its October 22nd, 2023 verdict. GYANG ZI and MOHAMMAD GWANI sought to exclude certain parties from the electoral contest and aimed for a self-proclaimed victory. However, the court firmly upheld the principle of inclusivity, ensuring that all relevant stakeholders have the opportunity to participate in the democratic exercise.

Notably, the court declined jurisdiction over the applicants' request to declare them winners and issue certificates of returns, rightly emphasizing that such decisions rest solely with the electoral umpire, INEC. Moreover, fines were imposed on the applicants, emphasizing the importance of respecting due process and legal boundaries within our democratic framework.

For Senator Simon Mwadkwon and the PDP, this reaffirms their readiness and determination for the impending contest. It is a testament to their respect for the rule of law and commitment to engaging in a fair and transparent electoral process.

Senator Mwadkwon's commendable leadership tenure and remarkable victory in the February 18th, 2023 election, where he triumphed across all six local government areas with an unprecedented margin, underline the massive support and trust he enjoys from the people of Plateau North.

This ruling also signifies more than just a legal outcome; it symbolizes the endurance of democratic principles and the unwavering commitment to uphold the voice of the electorate. The citizens of Plateau North are encouraged to actively participate in the upcoming rerun election, exercising their fundamental right to choose their representatives.

As we traverse the Yuletide season and anticipate the prospects of a new year, let this be a reminder of the importance of civic duty and responsible governance. Together, we will continue to strive for a future where visionary leadership and democratic values prevail, ensuring a prosperous and unified Plateau North.
