PDP vows to stop at nothing in sacking ex-governor Orji Kalu as senator-elect
The PDP made their stand known on Friday during a solidarity visit to the incumbent Senator, Chief Mao Ohuabunwa to pledge their unflinching support in his bid to recover his “stolen mandate.”
The former lawmaker expressed shock that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, issued certificate of return to Kalu “even when he was never returned nor declared the winner of the Abia North senatorial contest by the Returning officer”. “This is the height of impunity and rascality for a man who was never returned in an election to be issued with the certificate of return.
Responding, Ohuabunwa thanked the delegation for their solidarity, expressing faith that he would get justice at the tribunal.
