Senator Ifeanyi Ubah (YPP-Anambra South) has reacted to his sack by a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja on Friday for certificate forgery.
Kawu, in an earlier judgment, had sacked the lawmaker representing Anambra South for allegedly submitting a forged National Examination Council (NECO) certificate, to contest the February 23, 2019, senatorial election.
He also asked the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to withdraw the certificate of return issued to Ubah and hand it over to Dr Obinna Uzoh of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who came second at the election.
