The Supreme Court will on Wednesday January 10,2024 hear the suits brought by the candidate of Peoples Democratic Party,(PDP), in the March governorship election in Abia state,Okey Ahiwe,seeking the sack of Governor Alex Otti as Governor of the state.
Also,the Court will entertain the matter brought by Ikechi Emenike,the governorship candidate
of All Progressive Congress,(APC) who is also seeking the sack of Otti.
Confirming the date to Trendygistnaija,Victor Nwokoch,media adviser to Ahiwe,said his principal’s case against Otti would come up for hearing on Wednesday.
Emenike had,during his appeal court case,challenged the evidence of Otti’s membership of the Labour Party before he was elected governor.But the case was dismissed by the appellate as lacking merit,saying that the matter was a pre-election matter which falls within the Jurisdiction of the political party.
PDP and Ahiwe’s suits against Otti also were also dismissed at the appeal court for failure to demonstrate or link their documentary evidence on issues of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System,BVAS,to the specific parts of the case.
