Abia Governorship: Igbokwe Sues PDP, INEC, Asks Court To Nullify Ahiwe Candidacy by Metrix147: 6:14pm On Feb 28, 2023
The last may not have been heard of the People's Democratic Party, PDP, governorship primaries in Abia State which returned Chief Okey Ahiwe as the flag bearer of the party in the forthcoming March 11, 2023 election.

Reason: One of the aggrieved aspirants Mayor Lucky Igbokwe (Don Lulu) has approached the federal high court, Abuja in suit number FHC/ABJ/CS/138/2022, which was transferred to the federal high court in Umuahia presided by Hon Justice E.N Anyadike, where he is seeking a nullification of the second primaries and the candidacy of Chief Ahiwe.

It could be recalled that the PDP Abia State chapter conducted its governorship primaries on 25 May, 2022 which produced the late Prof. Uche Ikonne. In that election Mayor Lucky Igbokwe was the first runner up, behind Ikonne.

However, as fate would have it, the PDP candidate (Ikonne) kicked the bucket before the conduct of the General Election. Rather than elevating the first runner up to become the party's standard bearer, the PDP National and INEC called for a fresh governorship primaries which returned Chief Ahaiwe as the new candidate of the party.

In the amended originating summons filed by Dr J.A AKUBO, SAN, the plaintiff claims among others, a Declaratory relief that he is the authentic candidate of PDP for Abia State Governorship election.

He also sought for Court's declaratory order that Ahiwe is not qualified to contest the fresh primary having not participated in the previous primary election hence his election should be nullified.

Whatever that will consign PDP to dustbin of history is welcome. PDP is a dog that eats dog.

People don't vote for party. They vote for person.

If Obi had contest on the platform of the APC party. Igbo people will still massively vote for him...

It is about a person and how he convinced or win people to his side.

LIE! If Obi had joined the APC, igbos would have abused the life out of Obi for joining boko haram and Fulani party.

Before now, Alex Otti had been tipped to win the race in Abia state. If LP didn't do well in just concluded presidential election, Alex Otti would be a contender in Abia state.

From what I’ve been hearing, it’s not like Oti sef is the best; but hopefully better than other candidates. 😢

My fear now is that some people are thinking of Enyinnaya who is a well-known PDP boy, with some preferring him over Oti because he’s young and handsome… 😭😫

I hope Oti gets it, and is moved to do the state some good… 🙏🤲😢

The reason is simple.
Otti helped the Orjis launder money through Diamond Bank on the promise they will make him Gov in 2015.

It's likely he still might win because of the LP wave. PDP will likely finish 3rd, their only saviour is if there is very low turn-out next week Sat.
