The three man panel headed by Justice Cornelius Akintayo will deliver judgment on the suit filed by Senator Mao Ohuabunwa on his outright rejection of the Abia North Senatorial election result whereby Orji Uzor Kalu was declared winner by the returning officer Dr.Charles Anumudu which Ohuabunwa described as excess electoral fraud and broad daylight robbery,therefore approached the tribunal to seek for justice.
It was stated that 38,526 votes were cancelled during collation as declared by the returning officer Dr.Anumudu who declared Kalu winner by polling 31,201 votes against Ohuabunwa who polled 20,80.The difference between the number of votes scored by Ohuabunwa and Kalu was 10,400 which was lower than the number of cancelled votes as such demands for rerun as stipulated in rule 33(e) of INEC regulation.
Addressing Newsman at the High Court premises,Senator Ohuabunwa appreciated his legal team for the relentless efforts believing that his mandate will be restored by the special grace of God whom he relies on to do the rest.
Senator Ohuabunwa thanked his supporters and the good people of Abia North for believing and standing by him throughout this trying moment,promisin
