He was a contender to represent his Senate district for a second term in 2003, but lost in the primaries to Cosmas Niagwan.〔 Janfa moved to the Action Congress (AC) party, and ran on that platform for the Plateau South Senate seat in 2007. The election was won by John Shagaya, but Janfa petitioned the Election Tribunal to overturn the result on the basis that elections had been held in only three of the six local government areas. The tribunal nullified Shagaya's election, but after appeals Shagaya was declared elected. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Silas Janfa」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
