The long awaited Supreme court verdict on the Governors of Abia and Akwa Ibom states have come and was in their favour.The Supreme court today upheld the election of Emmanuel Udom as governor of Akwa Ibom state and also upheld that of his Abia State counterpart Okezie Ikpeazu all of the opposition party PDP.The supreme court held that Udom’s appeal challenging the decision of the appeal court, which sacked him, was “meritorious.”.
The Supreme court also upheld Ikpeazu’s election, stating that his appeal challenging the decision of the appeal court had merit and was allowed.
So both Umana Okon Umana, candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Alex Otti, candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) have totally lost out and will wait for 2019 to contest again.They should not rest until success is attained.
