Gov. Ikpeazu reacts to tribunal’s verdict reaffirming his re-election
Recall that the three-man panel of the Governorship Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Umuahia, the Abia state capital, and chaired by Justice A.L. Ogumoye, had Friday, dismissed the petition filed by 2019 APGA gubernatorial candidate, Dr. Alex Otti against the INEC’s declaration of Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu as duly elected governor of Abia in the last 2019 election.
But Governor Ikpeazu, in a statement forwarded to DAILY POST by his Chief Press Secretary, Onyebuchi Ememanka Friday night, expressed his profound gratitude to God Almighty for granting him victory at the Governorship Elections Tribunal. “I must also thank the Judges of the Tribunal for standing strong and firm in the defense of the choice made by our people during the last elections, and for resisting any attempt to use the hallowed chambers of the judiciary as a theatre where the democratic yearnings and aspirations of our people are dismembered and destroyed”.
