IMO: Emeka Ihedioha Reportedly ‘Weeps’ Over Loss To Hope Uzodinma At Supreme Court

Imo State Governor, Emeka Ihedioha was reportedly seen crying in public after the Supreme Court declared Senator Hope Uzodinma the duly elected governor of the state.

KanyiDaily had reported that the Supreme Court headed by Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN) Tanko Muhammad sacked the incumbent, Governor Emeka Ihedioha from office.

The seven-man panel of judges in a unanimous decision held that Ihedioha did not win the majority of votes cast at the March 9 governorship election.

The court declared that the votes due to Senator Uzodinma, which was unlawfully excluded from 318 polling units, be added to his votes.

With the results from the 388 polling units added, Uzodinma polled majority of the lawful votes and was declared winner of the 2019 governorship election by Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun.

According to a Facebook User, Rochas Rochas, Governor Ihedioha wept over the development.

Meanwhile, Reverend Father Ejika Mbaka is currently trending on Nigeran Twitter because his New Year prophecy has come to pass.

During his new year message, the Spiritual Director of Adoration Ministry in Enugu State declared that Hope Uzodimma will take over Imo State.
