Uche Nwosu Withdraws Case Against Ihedioha’s Election At Supreme Court by AuthenticNG: 3:02pm


The Action Alliance’s governorship candidate in the March 9, 2019 governorship election in Imo State, Uche Nwosu, on Tuesday, withdrew the appeal he filed against the election of Governor Emeka Ihedioha.

Nwosu is a son-in-law to the immediate-past governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha, who was elected to the Senate on the platform of the All Progressives Congress in the 2019 general election in the state.

On Tuesday, Nwosu’s lawyer, Mr. Solomon Umoh (SAN), told the seven-man panel of the Supreme Court led by Justice Tanko Muhammad, that the decision to withdraw the appeal challenging the outcome of the last governorship election in Imo State was based on the judgment of the apex court delivered on December 20, 2019.

The referenced judgment of the Supreme Court was on a case marked SC. 1384/2019, which had declared that Nwosu was not validly nominated as a candidate of the AA to participate in the March 9, 2019 governorship poll, thus lacked the locus standi to file any case in connection with the election.

Announcing the decision to withdraw the appeal on Tuesday, Umoh said, “Based on the judgment of this court in appeal SC. 1384/2019 delivered on December 20, 2019, and subsequently, on my advice to my client, we have decided to withdraw this appeal.”

Responding, counsel for respondents to the appeal, including Governor Emeka Ihedioha, who won the election on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, urged the court to dismiss the appeal having been withdrawn.

Ruling, the seven-man panel unanimously dismissed the appeal

People are more interested in Imo state because of Fr. Mbaka prophecy. Sentiment aside Fr. Mbaka prophecy always comes to pass. Mark this comment, I will be back when the judgement has been delivered.

Sen. Hope has been declared governor of Imo

Primary election that recognized Nwosu as the authentic candidate.

The Chairman of the electoral committee announced the results of the each governorship aspirants that Ololo, got 6,428, Eche, 2,454, Nwosu; 269,524, Madumere; 2,646, Uzodimma; 2,729, Gbujie; 4,855, Anozie; 3,248, Ejiogu; 3,456 and Nlemoha; 925.

Even if Nwosu was later disqualified, I think the 2nd position should be the beneficiary of this judgement and not Hope Uzodinma........why is the judiciary so confused, just to claim one state in SE for APC.

Lol... This is funny. Fr. Mbaka already saw APC's memo!!! grin grin grin

But, on what grounds are they declaring a 3rd placed individual winner. Why not just cancel the joke of an election, and conduct a fresh one.
