Court Nullifies APC Primaries In Rivers State by 1Ebiscoo: 3:10pm On Oct 10, 2018
Justice Chiwendu Nworgu of the High Court in Port Harcourt has made a consequential order nullifying all actions taken by the Ojukaye Flag Amachree led All Progressives Congress in Rivers state.

Justice Nworgu ordered that the nomination and subsequent election of candidates for the Governorship seat and all elective positions in the APC in the State was null, void and of no effect.

The judge in an elaborate judgement also gave an order restraining the National Leadership of the APC from recognizing the results of the May 12, 19, 20 and 21, 2018 congresses that produced Ojukaye.

He said Ibrahim Umah and twenty-two other aggrieved members of the APC were denied their constitutional rights to participate in the congresses.

He added that the congresses were done against the Electoral Act, Article 21 of the APC Constitution and guidelines of the party for the congresses.

Reacting to the judgement, Prince Azundah who represents the APC in the matter said further action will be taken against the judgment.

“We have said it before that the Judge does not have jurisdiction over this matter. The judgement is a nullifying.

Meanwhile, Counsel to Ibrahim Umah and other applicants, Henry Bello commended the court for the verdict.

Justice Chiwendu Nworgu, however, delivered the judgement against all odds.

This was according to the Judge who said there were lots of bombardment to stop the judgement.

Justice Nworgu who referred to the attack on the Rivers state Judiciary in May, said he was confronted with four petitions to the National Judicial Council challenging his integrity to hear the matter.

He also said the perpetual injunction obtained by the Ojukaye Flag Amachree-led APC from a Federal High Court in Abuja was an insult on his court because both courts were of coordinate jurisdiction.

He also went ahead to slam Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Lateef Fagbemi whom he accused of taking over the APC matter without being briefed by the Head Legal Services of the APC, Tade Oguntade.

Justice Nworgu said the attitude of the APC was a bad sign and an evil omen to the development of the country.

Ibrahim Umah and the twenty-two other aggrieved members of the APC belong to the Senator Magnus Abe-led group.

The battle line drawn. The unresolved internal wranglings in APC will be her major undoing. Zamfara gone, Rivers weakened and many more likely to follow.

A clear case of people who can't manage success.

We told them the Court would sack them when they were doing their initial gra gra but they refused to listen. Let them now go to the Appeal Court.

First they should go back to the FHC in Abuja that sold a perpetual injunction restraining the NWC or another Court of equal jurisdiction from removing them...!!!

Rivers high court judge doing the bidding of Wike. The federal court of appeal will set aside the useless judgement. I think it is now obvious that Magnus Abe is truly working for Wike. If not, i don't see the sense in his attempt to get all the candidates of his party disqualified from contesting and giving PDP an easy ride to victory.

Rivers APC knew already that the judgement will be like this and will come when time for primary is over so that APC will not field any candidate, Wike's script.

The reason why APC obtain perpetual injunction from removing Ojukaye led exco.

This same judge was driven by Wike to give a judgement against APC.

Wike uses justice Omereji and Nwaorgu to do dirty job,
Justice Omereji was the same judge that said EFCC has no right to probe Rivers account and slammed EFCC with 600million.

APC will appeal the judgement no problem.
Hope PDP supporters are watching and happy how Wike is abusing and using state judiciary the way he likes.

When APC starts they'll starts complaining on how judiciary is not independent and pocketed by APC.

The possibility of this is very high. Magnus knows he can't win. People are aware of his instability. He should just decamp already and stop the self deceit.

Come one, I hate it when we think like this. How would someone (PDP or APC) tell another man he can't be a governor of a state? You APC goons are so senile that you've lost it, he has right to seek redress if he's not please or when his right is being trampled upon.

This APC matter we are tired. Two negative judgements in Zamfara and Rivers. In Zamfara no election in 2019 for them and now Rivers. Hopefully it can be the same with the president's in 2019 so that we can have some peace of mind from these destructive party.

Meanwhile, Patriotic Nigerians are giving out c3000(Three thousand cedis) to Nigerians who may want to leave the country just because Atiku is the president. They are to board buses at Ojota and only alight to the extent this money can transport them along West African coast to Gambia.
Transport fare will also be sent to them at the expiration of Atiku's reign to return. Enjoy your stay!
They should ensure they keep in touch with home from time to time to get progress reports.
Once more congratulations to them all!
