Federal High Court sitting in Abakaliki has sacked Gov Dave Umahi as Ebonyi South APC Senatorial Candidate and upheld Mrs Ann Agom Eze as the authentic candidate for the Party.
Details shorty.


UPDATED:
This is the woman that defeated His Excellency, Engr David Umahi today in Abakaliki Federal High Court. She's Mrs Ann Agom-eze. She came second in the APC senatorial primary election for Ebonyi South Zone. Engr David Umahi's younger brother, Austin Umahi came first. Austin Umahi withdrew from the election and relinquished the ticket to Engr David Umahi. INEC frowned at it and omitted Engr David Umahi's name as it never monitored the rerun exercise announcing Umahi candidate. Engr David Umahi went to Federal High Court in Abakaliki, seeking order of court for INEC to publish his name as senatorial candidate for Ebonyi South. Ann Agom-eze applied to be joined in the suit.

Delivering his judgment this morning on the suit, Justice Riman cited section 115 of the electoral act which forbids a person from standing two different primary elections in the same year. He said in his judgment that such a person if found claiming to participate in two primary elections risks a two year jail term. He said that the authentic senatorial candidate of the APC is Mrs Ann Agom-eze since Austin Umahi withdrew from the race.

Therefore, if Engr David Umahi files an appeal, he stands to gain two years jail bounty as stated by Justice Riman in his judgment.
Congratulations to Mrs Ann Agom-eze.

The South, especially the South East are babies in the game of politics. People like Umahi and Akpabio that they suppose to you style support as back up plan. You don't put your eggs in one basket or cut your nose to spite your face.
It is people like Umahi and Akpabio that should straightforward vie for Senate presidency IF APC wins the presidential election. But of course, when there's no big APC name from the South, the presidency will either go North or at worst South West. Then SE will cry blood and neglect and Biafra yet again.


APC will be a history by this time next year.

Gov Umahi was a man loved by Ebonyians. He is my governor and I respect him for his work in Ebonyi. But when he started fighting the wish and will of the people (Mr Peter Obi), then he gradual became most hated.

Same thing happened with Remo Omokri, we use to love him but when he was bought over to fight against the choice of the masses (Peter Obi), he was hated.

Same faith is playing with Sowore. Sowore is shotting his chances of ever going to be president in Nigeria with the way he keeps fighting the choice of the people. One thing about hate is that it doesn't go immediately. When the people have seen how you are fighting against who they truly want, they will never again trust you for ever.

Tambowa seems to have escaped this trap by stepping down and not being on ballot for PDP presidential primary. Those who stepped down can argue that they didn't participate in two different primaries since they were not voted for in one of the primaries.

Not really. The fact that they participated in the exercise nullifies this option. Their stepping down is only their political settlement. Not known to the law.

With the judgment, umahi has no business in the senatorial election, even if the woman steps down, there will be a fresh election,in which umahi will not be eligible to contest or APC will not have a candidate in the main election

You are insulting the south East while you are actually ignorant. A first timer (as Umahi would be) cannot vie for Senate President

Don't be in a hurry to talk about things you know nothing about
