A Federal High Court in Abuja has nullified Senator Andy Uba’s and the All Progressive Congress’s participation in the last November 6 governorship election held in Anambra State on November 6 this year.

Justice Inyang Eden Ekwo, in a judgment on Monday, held that Uba was never a candidate in the election having emerged from an illegally conducted primary election by the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Justice Ekwo held that the plaintiff, George Moghalu succeeded in proving that the APC did not conduct a valid primary election from which Uba claimed to have emerged as the party’s candidate.

The judge ordered INEC to delete Uba from its record as a candidate in the election.

He then ordered the APC to refund to the plaintiff the N22,500.000 he paid for expression of interest and nomination forms since the party failed to conduct a valid primary.

The earlier APC boot out the useless Buni caretaker committee, the better for the party. With Buni in charge, APC may not even be allowed to participate in any election again. Everything must be done to get the convention done by February. Enough of this nonsense.

FreeStuffsNG:
APC Governors walked their party into a legal conundrum trap in their desperation to get Comrade Oshiomhole out. They should probably get ready to harvest a lot of court pronouncements against them in few weeks.

It had little to do with Buni.
Direct Primary was held and the Committee was chaired by Dapo Abiodun. They did it the "direct Primary" way by writing fictitious results, which Moghalu, Ikeazor and Ngige (the Abuja politicians) didn't let sliding down.

They petitioned the Party that there was no Primary. INEC report leaked that there was no Primary, yet they went ahead to accept the Primary.

Moghalu took the Party to Court and he just won. Uba is not a Buni person....let's not get it twisted.

This is the failings of the State Chapter of the Party to put its house in order, just like Zamfara in 2019.

psucc:
And that's the kind of direct primary they want to push into the Constitution.

seunmsg:
Wrong! It is the responsibility of the Buni led NWC/CTC to conduct the primary. If the report from the field indicated that something was wrong with the primary that was conducted, the CTC should have cancelled it and conduct another one that would comply substantially with the electoral guidelines and APC constitution.

This is Buni's shit and he should get the stick for it. There was a precedence in Zamfara that he should have learnt from. Enough of the incompetence. He should go by February.
