The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Thursday, nullified the Abia APGA Governorship Primary election held on
May 29, 2022.
In the ruling Justice Binta Nyako ordered that a fresh primary election be conducted within 14 days.
Justice Nyako made the order in a judgment on a suit files by Chief Chikwe Udensi challenging the outcome of the APGA gubernatorial primary election, purportedly won by Professor Greg Ibe.
The judge observed that from the evidence and testimonies of witnesses, the May 29 APGA gubernatorial primary election in Abia state was “flawed and marred by irregularities”.
Chief Udensi lost to Prof Ibe at the APGA primaries but headed to court to challenge the outcome of the election.
Specifically, Udensi had urged the court to declare him the winner of the APGA gubernatorial primary election or in the alternative, order for the conduct of a fresh election.
