Abia: Tension As Supreme Court Set To Hear Ikpeazu’s Appeal by zuma4k(m): 7:35am On Feb 03, 2016 |
There is palpable fear in the camps of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Abia State as the Supreme Court begins hearing on the appeal of Dr. Okezie Victor Ikpeazu. Recall that Ikpeazu had approached the country’s apex court challenging the judgment of the Appeal Court sitting in Owerri, Imo State which sacked him and declared Alex Otti of the APGA the governor of the state. The Nation gathered that while some members of the two parties were optimistic that the Supreme Court would rule in their favour, others were skeptical of whether the judgment was going to be in their favour. Information also have it that supporters of the two parties across the 17 local government areas of the state have equally been mobilized to leave for Abuja ahead of Wednesday’s sitting of the Supreme Court. Supporters of both parties it was gathered have booked for assorted kinds of drinks at respective drinking joints to celebrate the victory of their candidates should the Supreme Court decides to rule on the matter before it the same day. Some of them who spoke anonymously expressed fears that the judgment and stated that they were willing to accept whatever would be the decision of Supreme Court. One of the supporters said “you know what happened in Rivers and Ebonyi state matters respectively when they came up for hearing at the Supreme Court. Such a thing may happen in Abia’s case and as I speak with you now, we are on our way to Abuja ahead of tomorrow’s court sitting. Supreme Court like you know is the apex court of the land and whatever their decision is, we will abide by it. But I am sure that our candidate will get a fair hearing.” It was also gathered that security agencies have beefed-up their units in the state to avoid being caught unawares should any person or group of persons decide to cause breakdown of law and order in the state. http://thenationonlineng.net/abia-tension-as-supreme-court-set-to-hear-ikpeazus-appeal/
