A\u00a0 Yola Chief Magistrate Court two, Adamawa state has sentenced the brother of Senator Elect Bindowo Jibrilla representing\u00a0 Adamawa North senatorial district\u00a0\u00a0 to a\u00a0 three year jail for impersonating as an official of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, during the senatorial elections conducted on the 19th April 2011.<\/p>\n

Idrisu Jibrilla was arrested on the 19th April 2011 at Mubi, Adamawa state by the Area Commander in Charge of Mubi with an INEC official jacket and a Sienna bus with registration number \u2018Bindowo for senator 2011\u2019 containing PDP
and CPC posters with the sum of seventy thousand naira cash.<\/p>\n

Also found in his possession were hundreds of INEC ballot papers while moving from polling unit to polling unit donating the items to aide his brothers\u2019 victory.<\/p>\n
