ted, the Independent National Electoral Commission, has stated.
The commission, which stated that it would not speculate on any issue about the apex court’s verdict, also said it was not in a position to review, amend or add to it. INEC National Commissioner and Chairman of its Information and Voter Education Committee, Festus Okoye, made the clarification in an interview with The PUNCH in Abuja.
Okoye was reacting to insinuations that the Supreme Court judgment, which brought Uzodinma to power, was constitutionally defective as he reportedly did not get the spread of 25 per cent of the votes in two-thirds of the local government areas in Imo State, according to Section 179 and of the 1999 constitution .
He said, “The Supreme Court of Nigeria, being the final court in governorship petitions, has given its verdict. The commission is not in a position and is not permitted to review, amend or add to the judgment.“The commission has given effect to the judgement by issuing Hope Uzodinma with Certificate of Return. The commission will not speculate on any issue as the judgment is clear and has been implemented.”All rights reserved.
LET INEC SEND THEIR PERSONNEL TO THE JUDICIARY IN NIGERIA ON COURSE TO LEARN HOW TO CONVERT 5% TO 95%. THE ANGELS ARE RECORDING.

Na wa for this country ó... U talk say person wey carry first carry expo do exam, how the 4th con reach first... What happened to the 2nd and 3rd?
It has happen it has happened
Maybe if the ruling were the other way round, they may have dug up a reason why the law could be overthrown.
The supreme Court on this singular judgement has shown that the judges at the Apex are either incompetent or corrupt. How can't they interpret the law as it should be!!!
