The Enugu State Governorship, Election Petition Tribunal, sitting in Enugu, has ordered the Enugu State Governor, Peter Mbah and the Director General of the National Youth Service Corps, Brig-General Yushau Dogara Ahmed, to appear before it on Thursday, this week, to answer questions in respect of the alleged certificate scandal involving the governor.

The order followed a subpoena obtained by the Peoples Redemption Party and its governorship candidate in the March 18 gubernatorial election, Elder Christopher Agu.

Agu and his party, through their petition, are challenging the declaration of Mbah as governor of Enugu state.
