The court of appeal in Abuja has declared Donald Duke, former governor of Cross River, as the presidential candidate of the Social Democratic Party (SDP).

Duke had challenged the decision of the lower court.
In its ruling on Thursday, the appeal court declared that Duke is the authentic presidential candidate of the party.
