These, are certainly not the best of times for Senator Elisha Abbo as he has received a shocking verdict of his life by the Court of Appeal in Abuja.
The lawmaker, representing Adamawa North Senatorial District has been sent packing by the court from the National Assembly.
However, the court has declared Amos Yohanna as the winner of the Adamawa North Senatorial District.
Yohanna cited electoral irregularities and manipulation of results, and the Court granted the prayer to sack Abbo.
For those who don’t know, Abbo was first elected in 2019 on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Recall that he was enmeshed in different controversies, including the slapping of a lady in a sex toy shop in Abuja. The lawmaker was labelled a “sex toy lover”.
Interestingly, other members of the National Assembly have received the big stick from the Court of Appeal after losing out in their election litigation battles.
In the Senate, five lawmakers have so far been sacked by the Court of Appeal while in the House of Representatives, no less than 12 lawmakers have also been sacked by the Court.
