The commissioner spoke on behalf of the All Progressives Congress candidate and the governor of Imo State, Hope Uzodimma.
He called on the people of the state to remain calm over what seemed as a purported attempt by the opposition to seek an enforcement from the Supreme Court on its judgement of 2020 concerning the double nomination of Uche Nwosu for the 2019 gubernatorial election. Emelumba described the latest suit by the opposition as a distraction and mere academic exercise since the Supreme Court had laid to rest all issues pertaining to the election when it affirmed Senator Uzodimma as the validly elected governor of the state.
He described the latest effort as an exercise in futility because the so-called ruling on Nwosu was on nomination and not as the candidate of the APC in the said election.According to him, “They have forgotten that Uche Nwosu later went to the Federal High Court to challenge the candidature of Uzodimma, and he lost. That judgement was never appealed.
“Second, they appear to suffer a selective amnesia that, according to the relevant Electoral Act, pertaining to pre-election issues are statute barred. So, clearly, they are out of time.”Banks in Nigeria can now refund and take customers seriously, write a review regarding your experience and watch their management take instant action. Start now.
