IMO Update: Supreme Court Admits Chife Emeka Ihedioha Appeal's for a Review


The Supreme Court has reportedly admitted the appeal filed by the sacked governor of Imo State, Chief Emeka Ihedioha, over the judgement against him on January 14th 2020, that handed over power to Senator Hope Uzodinma who came fourth on the March 9th governorship election in Imo State.
According to Cyril Aririguzo, KSM, who posted the update on social media, he noted that the world super powers such as United States, United Kingdom and European Union, are interested in the case, as they are global leaders who are watching on other countries, would be on ground to monitor the judicial review, to ensure that Nigeria's democracy is not truncated.
Chief Emeka Ihedioha reportedly approached the court on Monday, to file an appeal, for the Supreme Court to review its judgment, which may cause them to reverse the victory of Senator Hope Uzodinma, in the event that, errors are noticed, but if not, Ihedioha may have to take and abide by the judgement.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), is expected to provide the original result sheets, for this review to take place as evidence to clear both parties.
Supreme Court judgement was based on the fact that, Uzodinma's votes were cancelled in about 388 polling units, which was later admitted and added by the court, but INEC did not authenticate if those results were for the APC candidate or genuine before court ruled.
Another ground, in which Ihedioha is challenging Supreme Court to review its judgment is that, Uzodinma was not a validly nominated candidate of the APC, because same Supreme Court validated that Uche Nwosu, son in-law to the former Governor, Rochas Okorocha was the authentic candidate of the APC.
Nigerians are of the opinion that, for Supreme Court to clear and clean the political logjam created as a result of the Imo judgement, there must be a review for posterity sake.
While Ihedioha is pursuing his case at the Supreme Court, many top lawmakers and leaders of his party PDP, have deserted him, and joined his rival Uzodinma in APC.
The State Chairman of his party have also resigned and defected to the 'now' ruling All Progressive Congress (APC).

This man should go and enjoy the money he stole from IMO state Treasury for seven months in peace. Anyway let his lawyers follow chop Small. Greedy man that the only thing he achieved for seven months was chasing Rochas okorocha around.
