The triumph of Chief Ikechi Emenike, the proclaimed winner of the All Progressive Congress (APC) governorship primary poll in Abia State has been nullified by a High Court in the State.

The result was overturned by Justice O. A. Chijioke the same day of the primary election, 26th May 2022. Mr. Chinedum Nwole and two others had sued Chief Ikechi Emenike and the judge ruled that Ikechi lacked the locus standi to run in the primaries because he had already been suspended from the party. Therefore, by participating in the primary election, he and the APC state chairman, Chief Donatus Nwakpa, broke article 9.3 of the APC constitution.

Justice Chijioke further declared his participation illegal. The ruling read in part, “That by the virtue of the suspension of the first defendant (Emenike) as a member of the second defendant (APC), the first defendant cannot participate in whatever form whatsoever in the activities of the second defendant including the scheduled ward, local government, state and national congresses of the second defendant due to take place between 2021 and 2022.”

“That order of injunction is hereby made restraining the first defendant from parading, dignifying and or posturing himself as a legitimate member of APC during the subsisting of his suspension from the party as prescribed by the constitution.”
