The Federal High Court sitting in Port Harcourt has fixed
24th of November, 2022 to deliver judgment in a suit filed by the Peoples
Democratic Party against the governorship candidate of the All Progressives
Congress in the state, Tonye Cole and the Independent National Electoral
Commission, INEC.
The Presiding Judge, Justice Emmanuel Obile, gave the
adjournment after counsels representing the parties argued and adopted their
final written addresses on the originating summons.
The PDP had approached the court to direct INEC not to
recognize Tonye Cole as the governorship candidate of APC claiming that
Tonye-Cole is not qualified following his dual citizenship.
The PDP also claimed that the delegates’ election that
brought in Cole did not follow due process.
