We at CUPS have received original court documents showing that the decision made by the Yobe state governorship election petition tribunal on 21/10/2015 to deny the petitioner Mr. Adamu Maina Waziri, and award the mandate to Ibrahim Gaidam, was indeed a blatant travesty of justice.
The court documents, which include personal bank statements, show that just three days before the governorship election was held on 11/04/2015, millions of Naira was paid into the personal bank accounts of the Yobe state Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC), Mr. Habu Hinna Zarma, with a view to influence the outcome of the election result. One illicit payment was made by Assistant Superintendent of Police, Zakari Deba, who is the ADC to governor Ibrahim Gaidam, and the other illicit payment was made by Mr. Bamaaji Mohammed Kukawa, a manager at Diamond Bank, Damaturu branch.
It is remarkable that despite this hard evidence of major conspiracy and abuse of office by Ibrahim Gaidam and the Yobe state REC, the decision was made by the election petition judge to deny the petitioner Mr. Adamu Maina Waziri, and award the mandate to Ibrahim Gaidam. We at CUPS believe that governor Ibrahim Gaidam, ADC Zakari Deba, REC Habu Hinna Zarma, Bamaaji Mohammed Kukawa, and the election petition judge all have a case to answer for.
We will shortly publish the full court documents for Nigerians to judge this scandal and grandeur travesty of justice.
May God save Nigeria and Nigerians. Amen.
Dr. Idris Ahmed.
