Governor Okezie Ikpeazu has won the fourth suit in the appeal against the nullification of his election by Justice Okon Abang of Federal High Court, Abuja.
The five man panel of the court ruled that the originating summon which formed the basis of the judgment was incompetent as it was not signed by any legal practitioner.
The judgment was the fourth ruling in the six appeals against the judgment of Okon Abang which nullified the election of Governor Ikpeazu.
Justice Abang had consequently ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC to issue a certificate of return to Uche Ogah.
The fifth judgment is now being delivered.
