Umahi is great engineer but not a smart politician he allowed himself to be deceived by the apc. He should have focused on how to complete all the mega projects he has embarked upon in ebonyi but instead he went on a wild goose chase in the disorganized crises ridden apc this judgement is a great lesson to other politicians. 3 Likes |

garfield1:Let me assume it is even correct, is it in the Constitution? No. The case will drag out of Umahi's tenure for sure but not one to succeed. |

When Umahi would have remained at the PDP, safely conducting his anti party practices as he was doing before the last polls and even his defection, he went to jump ship and opened his back to be targeted lol. Now the little dictator of ebonyi have received the boots |

emmykk: That is assuming the Speaker, Deputy Speaker et al did not defect as well. Whichever way, if this judgement holds, it will be a messy situation for Ebonyi state but a good omen for Nigeria going forward. |

fergie001: It is an easy case.even though defection is bad,there is no consequences for governors.again,the only way to remove a governor long after election cases has ended is through the house of assembly.it is an open and close case |

iwaeda: I think this will be settled once and for all! Umahi will appeal and it will eventually gets to supreme court and the pronouncement and verdict from the supreme will settle the controversies over cross carpeting after been elected, for now I think Umahi stays. |

garfield1:There is no were in Nigeria constitution or in electoral act that says that you could defect because of your personal interest. The basis for defection is clearly spelt out in the constitution, which is factionalisation of the party that sponsored you. The position you won belong to the party not you. Supreme court 2016, "Yaya Bello and APC Vs PDP". 3 Likes |

Odidigboigbo: Oga,thwre is nowere in the constitution or electoral act that stops governors from defecting or prescribes punishment for defection for governors..it only talked about lawmakers. The only way to remove a governor after election cases is through the house of assembly.bello vs pdp doesssnt a apply.atiku vs obj 2006 is thee best scenario |

The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Tuesday, sacked Governor David Umahi of Ebonyi State and his Deputy, Dr Eric Kelechi Igwe, following their defection from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to the ruling All Progressive Congress, APC. The court, in a judgement that was delivered by Justice Inyang Ekwo, held that the total number of 393, 042 votes governor Umahi secured during the March 9, 2019 governorship election in Ebonyi state, belonged to the PDP and same could not be legally transferred to the APC. According to the court, having defected to the APC, both Umahi and his deputy, not only jettisoned the PDP, but also the votes that belonged to it. It held that going by the outcome of the governorship election, the office of the governor and deputy governor in Ebonyi state, “belong to the Plaintiff and no other political party”. “There is no constitutional provision that made the ballot transferrable from one party to the other”. It held that the PDP is bound to retain the votes and mandate that was given to it by electorates in Ebonyi state, as both governor Umahi and his Deputy could not validly transfer same to APC. The court, therefore, ordered both Umahi and Igwe to immediately vacate their positions. It ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to immediately receive from the PDP, names of persons to replace Umahi and his Deputy, or in the alternative, conduct a fresh gubernatorial election in Ebonyi state in line with section 177(c) of the 1999 Constitution, as amended. The court further restrained both Umahi and Igwe from further parading themselves as governor or deputy governor of Ebonyi state. The judgement followed a suit the PDP lodged before the court.
