Court sacks PDP candidate again in Imo
The candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Aboh Mbaise/ Ngor Okpala federal constituency of Imo State, Albert Agulanna, has been sacked by a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja.
The appellant court, which delivered its verdict on Friday, ordered that a fresh primary be held in the federal constituency within the next 14 days.
The case was instituted by Dr Uzoma Ugochukwu from Aboh Mbaise.
The affected federal constituency is where the immediate past Governor Emeka Ihedioha hails from.
This came less than one week after the PDP candidate for Imo West senatorial district, Jones Onyereri, was sacked by the Supreme Court.
While Ihedioha was accused of masterminding the sacking of Onyereri, the National Secretary of the party, Samuel Anyanwu, has been fingered for the sack of Agulanna.
Ihedioha and Anyanwu are said to be interested in the PDP’s governorship ticket for the November 11 in Imo State.
Some of the members of the party expressed sadness over the internal crisis ravaging the party.
But Imo PDP spokesperson, Collins Opuruozor, said that the party’s internal dispute resolution mechanism was still functional.
He said: “Enemies of the party who were afraid of PDP’s public acceptance were using the courts to knock off PDP from the ballot.”
Anyanwu media aide, Ikenna Onuoha said: “The PDP is a beautiful damsel everybody is doing everything to settle down. The party is a beautiful bride that everybody is looking up to for political direction.”
