The tribunal upheld the victory of Gov. Umaru Al-Makura.
``We have already obtained the judgment; we would study it critically and proceed to the appeal court within the stipulated time.
``I am already consulting with my legal team, supporters and other political associates on the next line of action,” Maku said on Monday in Lafia.
He described the judgment as ``judicial endorsement of daylight robbery and rape on democracy.’’
He said he would not relent in his efforts to reclaim his mandate until he gets to the last stage of the struggle.

The tribunal had on the Sept. 30, dismissed Maku’s petition for lack of merit and upheld Al-Makura’s victory. (NAN)
