Tribunal fixes Oct 6 for Abia governorship election verdict

He said, “We have been on for some time. The election petition has a circle. There is a time for trial, adoption and judgment.However, the counsel to Emenike, Tochukwu Maduka , claimed that the defendant’s counsel failed to provide the Labour Party register where his name appeared.

He said that his team prayed the Court to cancel Otti’s votes, as well as that of the PDP and YPP candidates; and declare his client the lawful winner of the election having scored the highest of lawful votes in the election. Lead counsel to the PDP, Professor Paul Anaba, said his team agreed with the petitioner to sack Otti, but added that the PDP will benefit from the petition because the case of non-resignation as the chief of staff to the former, holds no water in the eyes of the law.All rights reserved.
