Appeal Court Delivers Judgment On Abia Gov Tussle Today (18-08-2016) by NAPC1(m): 9:14am On Aug 18, 2016
The Abuja Division of the Court of Appeal will on Thursday deliver judgment in the dispute between Okezie Ikpeazu and Uche Ogah over the governorship seat of Abia State.

Our correspondent learnt that parties to the six separate appeals arising from the July 27 judgments of a Federal High Court in Abuja were served with the hearing notices for the judgment late on Wednesday.

The hearing notice, according to a lawyer to one of the parties, indicated that the five-man panel led by Justice Helen Ogunwumiju would commence sitting by 10am on Thursday (today) to deliver its judgments.

The court, after the proceedings that lasted over eight hours on August 9, reserved judgments in six separate appeals challenging the two decisions of a Federal High Court in Abuja, which on June 27, 2016 removed Okezie Ikpeazu as Governor of Abia State.

The panel on August 9 heard all the appeals, reserved the judgments and promised to communicate to the counsel for the parties the date to deliver them.

Justice Okon Abang of the Federal High Court in Abuja had in his judgments delivered on June 27 sacked Ikpeazu for allegedly disclosing false information in relation to his tax clearance details to Independent National Electoral Commission in his form nominating him as the candidate of the PDP for the last year’s governorship election in the state.
