Governor Umahi’s victory: Ebonyi APC commends Appeal Court

On Friday, the chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Ebonyi State, Stanley Emegha, commended the justices of the Appeal Court sitting in Abuja for validating the primary election of the party, which produced Governor David Umahi as the authentic senatorial candidate of the APC in Ebonyi South Senatorial Zone.

Emegha stated this while speaking with journalists in Abakaliki, Ebonyi State capital.

He accused Umahi’s opponent, Mrs. Ann Agom-Eze, of intentionally wanting to distract the party in the state ahead of the forthcoming 2023 general elections.

According to him: “We followed the All Progressives Congress, APC, guideline in electing our candidates, and it can’t differ from the new electoral laws, especially as it concerned David Umahi, who picked the ticket of APC as Ebonyi South senatorial candidate.

“All of us from Ebonyi South appealed to him (Umahi) to contest because he was one of our finest. For him to vie for Ebonyi South senatorial zone ticket is a 75% victory for some people.

“Regarding Ann Agom-Eze, she knew from the onset that she didn’t show the seriousness with her contest.

“She always strives to be noticed; unfortunately, we know her very well. We see how she wants to bring a distraction to us.”
