Supreme Court adjourns case seeking Uzodinma’s sack to December 5
The Supreme Court, on Tuesday, adjourned hearing on the application by the All Progressives Grand Alliance seeking to sack Hope Uzodinma as the Imo State Governor to December 5.
It was gathered that the apex court had fixed October 31, 2023, for the commencement of a hearing on the matter.
It would be recalled that APGA in 2020 filed an application where the party contended that there ought to have been a fresh election in the state after the Supreme Court nullified the election of the Peoples Democratic Party candidate Emeka Ihedioha, candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, saying the apex court did not rule on the validity of Uzodinma’s candidacy since Ihedioha and the PDP did not challenge it in the appeal marked SC/1462/2019.
Three years after the application was filed, the apex court fixed its hearing on Tuesday.
However, when journalists visited the apex court on Tuesday, the matter was not listed on the court’s cause list.
One of the apex court registrars told journalists that the case had been moved to December 5.
No reasons were given for the postponement of the case.
