The Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) Benue State governorship candidate, Prof Steve Ugbah, has challenged the election of Governor Gabriel Suswam at the tribunal.
His counsel, Mr Andrew Wombo, on Tuesday filed the preliminary papers amid tight security by over 100 soldiers and riot policemen.
In a motion exparte brought pursuant to Section 151(1) of the Electoral Act 2010, Ugbah is seeking an order of the tribunal to inspect and obtain certified true copies of election materials used in the April 26 poll to enable him prepare his petition.
Ugbah demanded Forms EC 8A, EC 8B and EC 8C.
He also prayed the tribunal to order the release of summary of results from local councils collation centres’ (Form EC 8D) and the declaration of results of election to the governorship forms(EC 8E).
Ugbah further requested for the voters’ register, statement of unused and spoilt ballots, list of INEC staff, list of PDP agents, list of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) accredited observers and reports of electoral officers and supervisors.

This is a very good development, everybody has the election result, both domestic and international observers have the result as well as all the political parties. So if INEC present the election result form and the result does not correspond with the result the party have, then, the so called rule of law will prevail. This is our hope.
