Wait One Minute; If Uzodinma Got 236k cancelled votes from those Polling Units, How many did Ihedioha Get from those. They should add those to his totals.

You were complaining of Sen. Hope now. Did you complain of Zamfara. n Rivers?
I am not a party person, i am more of justice, I am not fan of any political party or person,this is more like a day light robbery, no one saw it coming. The case of zamfara was an internal problem of a political party that could not conduct a primary and elect a candidate, is not the same with this, let us face reality for one's and leave this party thing for one's.

Ha! 236k votes!!! How comes? Is this not too much? Who do we offend in this country? So, he was the only one deprived? The court should have sentenced everyone including the returning officers? This is huge fraud. The whole world is laughing at us.... What a stupid manipulation. Let's break up! This is utterly rubbish

He was the only one that sought redress

In he unanimous judgement of the seven-member panel, read by Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun, the apex court agreed that results in 388 polling units were unlawfully excluded during the collation of the final governorship election result in Imo State.

Now the crux of the matter is that was there cancellation in 308 wards or not We should desist from being unnecessarily emotional!!!

Let's not sentiment becloud our reasoning.
The facts are clear.
Others' votes are insignificant enough to effect the outcome of the election result.

our friends from the justice department can be funny at times,.... first d appellant went to d tribunal and court of appeal to argue that dat the governor didn't score up to the constitutional requirement votes.....now the supreme Court now ruled in another different dimension by ruling dat votes from 328 polling units were for just one candidate without giving us any real fact to back up dat claim, even in buhari's polling unit it's not everybody there dat voted for him so how can s judge now declare dat all the voters in dat polling units did voted for Mr Uzodinma and not Mr Nwosu nor Mr Ararume....how can she substantiate dat??.... anyways congratulations to the winner

I am not the type that insults priests but I'm forced by circumstances to that Fr Mbaka is an undercover APC member. He got this info leaked to him by the cabals and not holy spirit.

Sadly, hope uzodimma is another desperate politician that have been hustling for the governorship position since over a decade just like buhari and at the end, he doesn't have anything to offer.

If I should say father Mbaka was simply used to make the judgement look like divine intervention now, some people will call for my head.

For you to say so implies that you don't even have a head for anyone to call for. That you have something that looks like head does not necessarily mean it's functioning as head should.

It was only hope that was able to present evidence that he got 236,000 votes from 318 polling units.

The onus lies on Ihedioha to present evidence that he got votes from the 236,000 polling units. You cannot expect hope uzodinma or the supreme Court justices to do that for him.

The problem was the admissibility of the evidence uzodinma presented. The lower courts dismissed the evidence, while the supreme Court admitted it. One the evidence was admitted, ihedioha has lost.

Now the crux of the matter is that was there cancellation in 308 wards or not We should desist from being unnecessarily emotional!!!
Our igbo brothers trade in emotions. They think they can win or get what they want by stirring emotions. Most of them did not even bother to read the reason for the judgement, they just start screaming; Fulani herdsmen, sharia judges and Buhari. You wonder what concerns these with the judgement?

This is the crux of the judgement;

“Vote due to the appellant Senator Hope Uzodinma and the APC from 388 Polling Units were wrongly excluded from scores ascribed to the appellant(to them).

“It is thereby ordered that the appellant votes from 388 Polling Units unlawfully excluded from the appellant vote declared shall be added and that the first respondent, Emeka Ihedioha, was not duly elected by a majority of lawful votes cast at the said election.”

The lower courts had rejected the evidence presented by hope Uzodinma because the evidence did not originate from the witnesses presenting the evidence.


The panel led by Justice Malami Dongondaji had in the judgment dismissed Messrs Ararume, Nwosu and Uzodinma’s petitions for lacking in merit on the grounds that they failed to prove the allegations made in their petitions.


But the tribunal in its judgement held that the case of the petitioners was unmeritorious because they failed to call relevant witnesses and that evidence of witnesses called were based on hearsay.

The tribunal, in addition, rejected documents tendered by the petitioners in support of their claims on the grounds that those who led evidence in the documents were not the makers of the documents.
This to me is a stupid argument.
So the learned justices were saying that documents originating from INEC or the police, but presented by agents and lawyers of the petitioner cannot be admitted, because they did not write the documents themselves. Mind you, they did not alleged the documents were forged.

This is a brazen and a slap on our collective conscience. So 388 polling units where votes were cancelled were all won by Hope Uzodinma. How possible? Even at that, he would have recorded above 500 votes on each of the polling units with the other candidates getting nothing. The Supreme Court of Nigeria need to show the world the individual results that mske them declare Hope Uzodinma winner.
Even the judiciary... Nigeria democracy is really compromised and this is really annoying.

Was it only Hope that recorded votes from the cancelled 318 polling units? As in no other parties got a single vote from the 318 PUs? We need to know where the PUs are situated

It was a case filed by hope and not by other parties so they can’t reason for another party
