Ihedioha Hires Kanu Agabi SAN,29 Other Lawyers For Review by garfield1: 10:54am On Feb 06, 2020
Three weeks after the Supreme Court sacked Emeka Ihedioha as Governor of Imo State, he has returned to the apex court, asking it to set aside its earlier judgment.
On January 14, Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun delivered the lead judgment and declared Senator Hope Uzodinma of the All Progressives Congress (APC) winner of the governorship contest that held on March 9, 2019.
The Supreme Court, therefore, ordered the immediate withdrawal of the certificate of return issued to Ihedioha.
Addressing newsmen in Abuja, Ihedioha said he filed an application yesterday, with only one prayer: that the earlier decision be set aside.
He said he had already hired over 30 lawyers, led by a former Attorney-General of the Federation, Kanu Agabi, to represent him at the Supreme Court.
Speaking on behalf of Ihedioha, immediate-past Attorney-General of Imo State, Mr. Ndukwe Nnawuchi, told newsmen that they were hopeful that they would be vindicated at the end of the legal battle.
“On Wednesday, Emeka Ihedioha and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) put together a team of lawyers to study the judgment of the Supreme Court. That team has studied the judgment and has advised Ihedioha accordingly.
“Following their advise, Ihedioha and the PDP instructed the team of lawyers to approach the Supreme Court with an application to set aside its earlier judgment delivered on the 14th of January, 2020.
“I want to inform you that (yesterday), the team of lawyers filed the case. The relief being sought is to have the earlier judgment set aside on the ground of nullity. The details have been canvassed. The Supreme Court will reach a decision one way or the other.

I don't think you know what you are talking about!!!

Is the judgement not faulty Did APC field Hope Uzodinma in the last election held in Imo State

Making someone with criminal case to answer, a governor just to avoid justice in a country, the president claims he's fighting corruption leaves little to be desired!

Did EFCC make any excuse for Fayose EFCC CANNOT even see Hope Uzodinma until he was the governor!

Government of double standard!

Hypocritical people!!!

Waste of money.

Money he hopes to recoup if it ever happens that the Supreme Court is foolish enough to reverse itself.

Which will never happen anyway.

But the desperate politician can't see that.

Re: Ihedioha Hires Kanu Agabi SAN,29 Other Lawyers For Review by CanadaOrBust: 4:50pm On Feb 06, 2020
I am so vehemently against this judgment, though not necessarily for PDP or Ihedioha!

Consider:
The Uzodinma documents they relied on to replace an 8-month incumbent governor with a FOURTH place finisher: not only were they full of ridiculous numbers, they were also incomplete, smudgy, full of alterations, signed only by APC, and showed results for only APC and PDP out of 70 parties!

Consider:
PDP won the rerun recently held in the same Hope’s “stronghold” where he got 99.99% of the votes with 100+% voter turnouts!

Consider:
Never in Nigerian judicial history (or any authentic democracy for that matter) has the SC ruled against ALL lower courts AND the election authority itself in order to immediately replace a sitting governor with a 4th-place finisher - all based on clearly questionable, uncollaborated, and unauthenticated documents supplied solely by the 4th-place finisher himself!!

Consider
The precedent set here:

A person that comes 10th can easily be declared winner and immediately replace the incumbent. All they’d have to do is present result sheets which the Supreme Court MUST accept no matter how outrageous and defective they may be, as long as no one can produce the originals!

Ihedioha is a big fool. Judges collected his seat, lawyers would collect his money.

Produce your form EC 8A and EC8B, you can't. Yet you are disputing the figures. Even INEC couldn't produce them.

Mbaise rigging machinery has been dismantled. Imo has moved on.

Good one, uzodinma is installed by the caliphate in conjunction with mbaka.... Imolites don't like him hence a governor should be voted for by his people and not to be selected by some cabals.

Ihedioha is just a making a fool of himself. The mbaise ego in him is still kicking but it will be limping soon. He will never be Imo governor again be it in 2024 or 2028 or ever. The green cap has fallen and fallen never to rise again.

Desperate ke, he is trying to save the judiciary from becoming a laughing stock in the international community because the supreme court erred when it erroneously handed over the electoral mandate to a usurper. If the supreme court has conscience the best thing for them is to handover back the judgement to Ilehdioha and save us all from being mad a laughing stock.

A laughing stock you mean to a layman like you? Nigerians lack legal education.can you quote any law where the supreme court contravened by declaring hope?
