The Imo State High Court gave a judgement on July 28, affirming Umeoji and Jude Okeke as candidate and Chairman of APGA respectively.

However, Oye & Soludo were not joined as parties. Oye, childishly as always, rather than appeal has gone to the same Court to be joined as parties, and the case revisited.

Even though, the Court reserves the rights to revisit such a case where interested parties weren't joined to the suit...Justice Isiguzo insisted that he won't revisit the case and the ruling of 28 July stands.

Oye & Soludo had pressed for a Stay of Execution which was also turned down by the Judge, instead asking them to approach the Appeal Court in Owerri for the request...

Re: BREAKING: Court Sacks Soludo,oye Again, Declares Chukwuma Umeoji APGA Candidate by apga: 12:05pm On Aug 19, 2021
UPDATE

The Imo State High Court has granted the National Chairman of APGA, Ozonkpu Dr Victor Oye leave to appeal the judgment of Hon Justice Iheaka delivered on the 28th day of July, 2021. In a ruling delivered today, 19th of August, 2021, the vacation court presided over by His Lordship, Hon Justice Isiguzo held that Ozonkpu Dr Victor Oye has shown sufficient interest in the subject matter of the judgment and thus ought to have been joined ab initio to the suit at the lower court. Consequently, the court granted him leave to appeal the perverse judgment of the lower court.

The court however declined to grant the application to Stay Execution insisting that the Court of Appeal is in a better position to entertain the application for Stay of Execution.

With the ruling of the court today, the coast is now clear for the Court of Appeal, Owerri Division to follow the judgment of Court of Appeal, Kano Division to set aside the judgment of Owerri High court which was delivered without jurisdiction.

Will this change the effect of the judgement of Kano court of appeal?

I just read another clearer interpretation of the judgement. The OP simply sensationalized the headline as usual. The court agreed that Oye has shown sufficient interest in the case and was granted the leave to appeal the judgement at the appeal court. So, it is left for him to appeal the July 28 judgement at the appeal court. Hopefully, the Owerri division of the appeal court will upturn the useless high court judge that ruled on the case without hearing from Oye.

*AS IT HAPPENED AT HIGH COURT OWERRI, IMO STATE TODAY, THURSDAY, 19th AUGUST, 2021*

Contrary to fake news/reports flying around the media even before the ruling of the court today. Below is exactly what happened:

The court started sitting around 10.30am. As the tradition demands, rulings and judgements must take place first before any other case.

*Appearances*

Plaintiff respondent, Chike Dike(surrogate of Jude Okeke and Hon Chukwuma Umeoji) was absent as usual. His lawyer, Asika Ilobi Esq announced appearance.

Second defendant, INEC was absent and have never been represented since commencement of case.

Apealant/Applicant, APGA and Ozomkpu Dr Victor Ike Oye were represented by the state Chairman of APGA, Imo State, Hon John Iwuala.
Legally represented by V. I Nzeobi(Esq) appearing and holding the brief of P. I. N Ikwueto (SAN).

*Ruling*

The Hon Justice read out series of authorities while delivering her ruling, stressing that the issue of joinder and leave of appeal is statutory and a constitutional right of citizens if any ongoing matter or decided matter affects or may affect their interests.

She maintained that it's the duty of a litigant (plaintiff) to include such persons while filing a suit and make them parties to the suit.

But in the instant case, a judgement has been entered already, wether the said judgement was right or wrong, it's no more the duty of same high court to determine an appeal against it's ruling.

The court held that Dr Victor Oye and APGA has shown substantial evidence to prove that they are either directly or indirectly affected by the said judgement as required by law.

In the instant case, the judge ruled that the application for joinder filled by Dr Oye and APGA succeeds. *Application for joinder hereby granted.*

Application for leave to appeal against the judgement of Justice Iheaka of Owerri High Court granted.

*APGA and Dr Victor Oye hereby granted leave to appeal against the judgement of Justice Iheaka.* She declared.

Application for declaring the leave of appeal as a stay of execution refused.

The court held that since the application for leave of Appeal is to appeal and set aside the said judgement, it is prejudicial for same court to set aside or stay it's judgement as it gives no meaning to the appeal which same court has granted leave for.

The court maintained that leave of Appeal and joinder must be granted judicially and judiciously as it's a deprivation of one's constitutional right to refuse such requests as the court is convinced beyond reasonable doubts that their rights and interests were affected by the earlier judgement of Hon Justice Iheaka. She also maintained that when an important party is not included in a suit, such acts may affect the merits of any judgement delivered in such suit. Therefore, it's in the interest of Justice to allow the applications succeed.

*Lesson/implications of today's ruling*

As it stands today, the matter is already done and dusted by the ruling in favor of APGA and Dr Victor Oye's application for joinder and leave of appeal, because the court of Appeal Kano division has already decided on the leadership tussle in APGA and ruled that Oye and Soludo are National Chairman and APGA candidate for Anambra State Guber election respectively.

All appeal courts are of coordinate jurisdiction and cannot contradict itself on matters like this.

The ruling today in Imo State High Court is a big Victory for APGA and Dr Victor Ike Oye.
