I have received with concern, report of the
purported issuance of Certificate of Return to Mr. Uche Ogah by the Independent
National Electoral Commission (INEC), as governor of Abia State, despite
dependency of a notice of appeal and motion for stay of the orders made by
Justice Okon Abang of the Federal High Court, Abuja.
Our laws are clear on this matter. No one may
be issued with a certificate of return let alone be sworn in as governor, when
there is a subsisting appeal and application for stay...
I want to appeal to Abians to remain calm and
law abiding in the face of this provocation, unless and until the appellant
courts have conclusively resolve the appeal, the status remains, I am still the
Governor of Abia State.
Dr Okezie Ikpeazu
Governor, Abia State
