Supreme Court had on Tuesday, January 14, declared Hope Nzodinma as the authentic governor of Imo state

- The former occupier of the seat, Emeka Ihedioha, was sacked by the apex court

- Before his eventual declaration on Tuesday, Uzodinma came fourth during the March 9, 2019, governorship election held in the state

The sacking of the former deputy speaker of the House of Representatives, Emeka Ihedioha, as the governor of Imo state by the Supreme Court is no longer a news but what remains a source of wonder for most Nigerians is how the candidate of All Progressives Congress (APC) and Imo governor-elect, Hope Nzodinma, finally won the battle after he had lost at tribunal and the Court of Appeal.

Before the judgement of the Supreme Court on Tuesday, January 14, the fiery Catholic priest of Enugu Diocese, Ejike Mbaka, had sent a jittery to the camp of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state when he prophesied on the eve of January 1, that Ihedioha would be sacked and that Nzodinma would become the governor.
