A state High Court in Owerri the Imo state capital has issued an order of interim injunction to the independent national electoral commission restraining it from recognizing Senator Ifeanyi Ararume as the winner of the December 2020 Imo North Senatorial candidate of the All progressives Congress .
This latest injunction comes few hours after a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission to issue a certificate of return to Ifeanyi Ararume based on the result of December 5, 2020, Imo North Senatorial bye-election, having been declared as the valid candidate of the All Progressives Congress.
Earlier, Justice Taiwo dismissed the Preliminary Objection challenging the jurisdiction of the court to entertain Senator Ararume’s suit filed by the APC and Chukwuma Ibezim. Prior to the bye-election held on December 5, 2020, Ibezim and Araraume had fielded themselves as APC candidates.Tunde Falola, who is the Counsel to Senator Ararume told journalists after the court ruling that the judgments of the High Court and later the Court of Appeal have conclusively disqualified Ibezim and therefore he cannot claim to be an aspirant or candidate in the Imo North Senatorial election.
Senator Ararume then dragged INEC, APC, and Mister Ibezim before the Federal High Court praying for an order to compel INEC to recognise him as an APC senatorial candidate in the election won by the party.
The man, that was robbed of all he won,he never gets tired. From PDP pry that brought Ohakim in to the one Hope took and now still getting the shut to his face. He needs to leave the political sphere of Imo state and mentor younger generation on the need not to follow his path.
I already called these court rulings NoneSense.
