Recall that Mutfwang of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) scored 525,299 votes to beat the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Nentawe Yilwatda, who garnered 481,370 votes during the 18 March governorship poll in Plateau State.
Although the governor’s election was upheld by the Plateau State Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal in Jos, the state capital. However, the Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal, in its judgement delivered on November 19, 2023, overturned Mutfwang’s victory, prompting him to file an appeal at the Supreme Court to challenge the appellate court’s decision.
