The three-man tribunal headed by Justice Ebiowei Tobi delivered its verdict today having earlier reserved judgement in the petition brought against Kashamu’s victory at the March 28 elections, by the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr Dapo Abiodun.
Senator Kashamu is currently the sponsor of the Mental Health Bill 2015 which had its first reading on the floor of the senate on Thursday alongside 11 other bills.
The tribunal in Ogun state similarly nullified the election of Hon Adesegun Adekoya representing Ijebu East, Ijebu North/Ogun waterside, who on Thursday moved a motion for the probe of $407m probe of $407m CCTV cameras for Lagos and Abuja.
Aside Adekoya, the elections of five members of the Ogun state assembly were similarly nullified for non-compliance of electoral law.
The tribunal has ordered fresh elections in the areas affected within the next 90 days.
