The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has reacted to a court ruling ordering the issuance of a certificate of return to Rochas Okorocha, the substantive winner of the Imo West Senatorial district election. Justice Okon Abang of an Abuja Division of the Federal High Court, yesterday ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to issue the Certificate of Return to former Imo State governor, Rochas Okorocha, who won the March 9th election for the Imo West Senatorial district. The judge argued that INEC lacks the constitutional power to withhold the Certificate of Return of a politician who has been declared winner of an election. Read here. Reacting to the court judgement, National Commissioner of the Commission’s Committee on Voter Education and Information in INEC, Festus Okoye, said the commission will meet and do the needful. His statement reads ”The attention of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has been drawn to the judgement of the Federal High Court, Abuja, presided over by the Hon. Justice Okon Abang, directing the Commission to issue a Certificate of Return to Rochas Okorocha as the Senator-elect for Imo West Senatorial District.https://www.gistsfanz.com/2019/06/inec-reacts-to-courts-ruling-on.html |
