Those summoned for the latest case before the Supreme Court are: Senator Hope Uzodinma, the present Governor of Imo State, the All Progressive Congress APC, and Independent National Electoral Commission INEC.
The Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Hon Emeka Ihedioha was on January 14, 2020 removed from office by the Supreme Court, and announced Senator Hope Uzodinma winner, after the court added votes from 388 polling units.
The judgment of Jan 14, 2020, caused a lot of crisis in Nigeria which even attracted the attention of International Communities, and led to Nation-Wide protests from members of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Our sources learnt that Ihedioha’s team of Lawyers requested for accelerated hearing on the Review, which is an indication that when the case resumes it would take a short time for Court to finally resolve the lingering Imo Governorship imbroglio.
