"...I believe the Supreme Court has laid to rest the contention that it is the political party which contests and wins an election. In C.P.C. v OMBUGADU (2013) 18 NWLR (Pt. 1385), the Court was categorical that individuals as candidates win election and not the political parties."

 

Per PETER-ODILI, J.S.C. In OZOMGBACHI v. AMADI & ORS CITATION: (2018) LPELR-45152(SC)
