Senate Majority leader, Alhassan Ado Doguwa

The election victory recorded by the member representing Tudunwada/Doguwa Federal Constituency in the upper chamber of the National Assembly, Alhassan Ado Doguwa, suffered a serious setback as the Court of Appeal sitting in Kaduna has sacked him and ordered a fresh election within 90 days.

The judgment was delivered in favour of Commodore Salisu Shehu (rtd), the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) candidate during the election, who prayed the court to nullify his victory citing overvoting, electoral fraud, among others.
