The Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, on Wednesday, asked the Federal High Court Abuja to compel the Independent National Electoral Commission, , to issue him with a Certificate of Return as the senator-elect for Imo West Senatorial District.
The judge, Taiwo Taiwo, has fixed April 5 to commence hearing on the matter, according to a report by Vanguard Newspaper. It is based on that that the electoral commission removed Mr Okorocha’s name from the elected senators’ list and said it is reviewing the situation in the district.
