Court Of Appeal Affirms Edeoga As The Authentic Labour Party Candidate For The E by ComradeNap(op):
COURT OF APPEAL AFFIRMS EDEOGA AS THE AUTHENTIC LABOUR PARTY CANDIDATE FOR THE ENUGU STATE GUBERNATORIAL ELECTIONS

The Court of Appeal, sitting in Abuja, today Friday, 6th January 2023, set aside the judgment of Justice Evelyn Maha of the Federal High Court, Abuja and reinstated Hon Chijioke Edeoga as the gubernatorial candidate of the Labour Party in the Enugu governorship race.

Edeoga's nomination was set aside by the High Court upon a suit by Everest Nnaji claiming that he was excluded from the primary election.

In it's judgment today, the Court of Appeal restored Edeoga as the authentic candidate of the Labour Party for the Enugu governorship race. The Court of Appeal lambasted Justice Maha of the Federal High Court for going on a voyage of discovery. The court wondered how Justice Maha could have arrived at such a strange decision given the fact that the Supreme Court had passed several judgments on the issue of who is an aspirant entitled to bring an action. The court wondered why the lower court entertained Everest Nnaji's suit at all, since it was obvious that he lacked the locus standi to even bring the action and deemed the action of the judge as an unwarranted interfere in the internal affairs of the Labour Party.

The Court of Appeal then ruled that even the respondent's brief filed before it by Everest Nnaji's lawyer was incompetent having been filed out of time.
The Court of Appeal adopted the four issues formulated by Barrister Alexander Obodo SAN, counsel to the Labour Party. On the first issue, the court agreed with the submission of Alex Obodo SAN, that since Everest Nnaji did not participate in the primary election, he lacked the locus standi to challenge the outcome and that the lower court should have dismissed his suit.

Having held that Everest Nnaji lacked the standing to even bring the suit thereby robbing the court of jurisdiction, the Court of Appeal held that there was no need to waste their time in consideration of the other issues.
The Court therfore allowed the appeal, set aside the judgment of Justice Maha and affirmed Hon Chijioke Edeoga as the authentic candidate of the Labour Party for the Enugu State gubernatorial election

But you are using the very phrase invented for Enugu politics by the same Ebeano cabal.

Abi no be "To God be the glory, Enugu State is working" be the slogan of the Ebeano political family of Dr Chimaroke Nnamani who was Enugu State Governor from 1999 to 2007?

This one has no shame at all.

He supports a party that is the waste bin for failures from other parties, yet he claims they want to rescue Nigeria.

He is even happy to receive more of the people who are in power now into the Labour Party, if they unexpectedly manage to win the Presidency.

Is it with such mentality and congregation of political prostitutes that the desperate ticket hunter would rescue Nigeria?

You mean Obi should have also stayed in PDP? Or betterstill, APGA?

As you took a failure called Obi, and a convict called Okupe, be ready to take all the problems of Nigeria, while we progress with a Tinubu Presidency.

That clause "to God be the glory" is older than Chimaroke Nnamani as a person. So you don't know what you are talking about

It is a very old phrase indeed.

But we all know that as it concerns Enugu politics, it is the slogan of the Ebeano political group.

The bottom line is that in Enugu politics today, we have vehemently rejected Ebeano and whoever identifies with it. That is why Enugu people are rooting for Chijioke Jonathan Edeoga as the best man for the lion building job
