Why Supreme Court Sacked Ihedioha as Imo Governor

ONews by ONews

It is no longer news that Emeka Ihedioha was sacked as the governor of Imo State but many are wondering why a candidate who came fourth was declared winner in the gubernatorial polls.

In the lead judgement read by Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun, the apex court ruled that records before it proved that election results from 388 polling units during the election were unlawfully excluded from the overall collated results that declared Ihedioha winner.

It noted that results from the cancelled polling units amounted to 213, 295 votes, adding that Ihedioha was returned elected, based on wrong computation of results.

According to the apex court, the tribunal and the appellate court failed to properly award justice to Uzodinma when he petitioned them because they misinterpreted his petition.

“There is merit in this appeal, it is hereby allowed. Majority judgement of the lower court affirming the election of the 2nd Respondent is hereby set-aside”, Justice Kekere-Ekun held.
