Hope Uzodinma to power.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">Recall that the dust raised by the judgment is yet to rest following complaints by PDP and Ihedioha\u2019s sympathizers over the outcome.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">While well meaning Nigerians, Rt. Hon. Emeka Ihedioha and the Peoples Democratic Party have not only rejected the verdict, they have also called for a review, of the judgment for posterity sake. The National Executive Committee of the party in a recent meeting has agreed for a judicial review of the judgment thereby putting the Supreme Court under pressure to look at the case again.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">As the PDP present their case, information making rounds has it that International Electoral Observers from the United States, European Union and other nations with the help of International Civil Rights Group in Nigeria and Diaspora are willing to show physical presence and readiness to follow up and monitor all the proceedings of the review panel. The desire of the International observers has placed the Supreme Court under pressure.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">The reason for the review of the judgment, according to the PDP, was based on the following reasons;\u00a0 a claim that Uzodinma was not APC candidate and was not a candidate of any party in the 9th March Governorship election in Imo state based on the judgment of the same Supreme Court on the 20th, December, 2019.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;Uche Nwosu was not declared as the rightful candidate of APC and AA and was disqualified for double candidature&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\u201cAPC couldn&#8217;t have produced two candidates in one election&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;Supreme Court have no powers to allocate votes to any candidate&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\u201cSupreme Court have no power to increase the number of people accredited by INEC&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;Somebody that was not a candidate cannot be a winner of an election he was not a candidate&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\u201cNigerian police have no powers to organize elections in Nigeria&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div dir=\"ltr\">\u201cResults tendered by a police officer cannot be admitted in any court as exhibit as he was not an INEC officer&#8221;.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Tochi Onyeubi The last is not yet heard about the after effects of the<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-27154","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-frontpage"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","elegant-magazine-featured":"","elegant-magazine-medium":"","elegant-magazine-medium-small":"","elegant-magazine-thumbnail-small":""},"author_info":{"info":["Imo Trumpeta"]},"category_info":"<a href=\"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/?cat=3\" rel=\"category\">Frontpage<\/a>","tag_info":"Frontpage","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27154","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=27154"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27154\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27157,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27154\/revisions\/27157"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=27154"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=27154"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.imotrumpeta.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=27154"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
