The National Assembly Elections Petition Tribunal sitting at Tafawa Balewa Square (TBS) in Lagos has nullified the return of Thaddeus Atta of the Labour Party (LP) as the duly elected member representing Eti Osa Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives.
INEC had declared Atta the winner of the poll after he polled 24,075 votes to defeat Bankole Wellington (Banky W) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who scored 18,668 and Ibrahim Babajide Obanikoro (IBO) of the All Progressives Congress (APC), who polled 16,901 votes.
In a judgement delivered on Monday, the Tribunal directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to conduct a supplementary election within 90 days across 33 polling units where elections were not held in the Constituency during the February 25 National Assembly election.
