The Court of Appeal in Abuja, yesterday, gave the Governor of Abia State, Okezie Ikpeazu the nod to remain on seat pending the determination of the appeal challenging his removal from office.
The appellate court took the decision before it slated August 9 to hear eight separate appeals that arose from judgment of the Federal High Court in Abuja that sacked Ikpeazu from office over alleged tax fraud.
Recall that trial Justice Okon Abang had on June 27, ordered Ikpeazu to immediately vacate the governorship seat, even as he directed the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to issue fresh Certificate of Return to Mr. Sampson Ogah who came second in the governorship primary election the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, conducted in Abia State on December 8, 2014.
