Four Benue State gubernatorial aspirants on the APC platform including Senator Barnabas Gemade, Mike Aondoakaa (SAN), Mathias Ibuan and Terhemba Shija have registered their petitions to the Governorship Appeal Panel Committee.
The aspirants who took turns to state their cases rejected the outcome and called for fresh primaries to be conducted in the State.
