The Appeal Court in Abuja has solidified the legitimacy of the 23 Local Government Area (LGA) Chairmen in Rivers State. This decision comes after the court nullified a Federal High Court judgment that had cast doubts on the validity of the Rivers LGA elections. The ruling affirms the authenticity of the chairmen, resolving uncertainty around local governance in the state.
This outcome marks a significant win for local government stability in Rivers and reinforces public confidence in the electoral process.
