Anambra Governorship Election: Chuwuma Umeoji Remains APGA Candidate – Court Reaffirms

A State high court sitting in Owerri Thursday reaffirmed Jude Okeke as the authentic National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance APGA.

He consequently directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to recognize all correspondence from his faction for the November governorship election in Anambra State.

Victor Oye-led APGA in an application, urged the court to stay execution of it’s earlier judgement on the matter and also grant him leave to appeal the judgment.

Giving judgment on the applications, Justice Vivian Isiguzo granted Oye leave to appeal but refused to grant the prayer on stay of execution, rather reaffirmed its earlier judgement on the matter.

Counsel to the third respondent Collins Asikilobi noted that all consequential orders made by the trial court are binding on all parties involved in the matter until the appellate court said otherwise.
