Supreme Court ruling: Ihedioha can still be governor

It is no longer news that in line with last week's decision of the Supreme Court, Senator Hope Uzodinma is now the Imo sState governor. Having decided that the exclusion of certain votes in his favour during the collation of votes at the last governorship election in the state was illegal, the Apex Court went ahead to add the said votes which saw to the victory of the new governor. Uzodinma was promptly sworn in. His immediate predecessor, Emeka Ihedioha who had earlier been declared as the duly elected governor by the electoral body had to step down. Before doing so, Ihedioha did not forget to make the point that although he did not agree with what he described as an unfair and unjust ruling, he had 'no option but to respect the outcome of the judgment.' A cursory look at various media platforms shows that Ihedioha's viewpoint is generally shared by a cross section of Nigerians.The post Supreme Court ruling: Ihedioha can still be governor appeared first on Vanguard News.
