The Court of Appeal sitting in Calabar, Cross River State has this morning declared Jarigbe Agom Jarigbe as the senator-elect for Cross River North Senatorial District. The judgement apparently puts to an end the endless political struggle for the position that has ensued between Jarigbe and Stephen Odey, who presently occupies the position.
Jarigbe in a short reaction to the court judgement simply wrote on his Facebook wall that his victory is “A huge lesson: Never ever kill for Power. I knew the blood of the murdered was going to haunt the Perpetrators. Let’s turn to God for forgiveness. Congratulations to the Unconquerable ones.”
More details shortly.
