Wow!

PDP disqualifying a candidate because he has been tried in court before?

I guess the court that EFCC took Stella Oduah to is Lawn Tennis Court and that’s why she was not disqualified even with her anti party activity during the Anambra guber election.

They also disqualified Ozigbo and cleared Tony Nwoye, another criminal.
