Uzodinma in, Nwosu out as Imo APC governorship candidate

At last, the power tussle between the Governor of Imo state, Rochas Okorocha, All Progressives Congress (APC) Chairman, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, Senator Hope Uzodinma and Uche Nwosu, 

has been ended by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). 

Senator Hope Uzodinma’s name has been pasted as the governorship candidate of the Imo state APC in Imo state, by the INEC.

 The name of Uzodinma, was pasted at the INEC, office along portharcourt road in Owerri, with Akaolisa Cyprain Okechukwu, as his running mate. 

Vanguard visited the INEC, office at about 18:45pm and kept vigil for the list to be pasted and at about 07:52pm Uzodinma’s name was displayed as the authentic governorship flag-bearer of APC, in Imo state. 

This is coming about after 10 hours, INEC, pasted other governorship names of various political parties, excluding that of APC.

 A source told Vanguard that, “Immediately, the court struck out the order by the Okorocha’s faction stopping the name of Senator Uzodinma, from publishing as the candidate of the party.

 “The judgement was taken to the National headquarters of INEC, and an order was given that the name of Hope should be pasted immediately. 

“When the order came, to INEC in Owerri, the administrative head was not on sit but the legal adviser received the order from the National headquarters and he went on. “They have just acted not as in their own power but according to the power of the court.”
