Ohaneze Lauds Anambra PDPs Supreme Court Judgement





The Igbo most respected Socio-Cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, has hailed the sack of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, three senators and eight House of Representatives members from the state by the Supreme court adding that the apex court verdict served PDP well.
Reacting to the sack, the Anambra state chairman of Ohanaeze, Elder Chris Eluemuno said, "it is a welcome development in the sense that PDP especially in Anambra state has been doing things with impunity".

"At every election they will bring out three candidates at the same time and the three will be contesting for the same position and at the end of the day, one candidate will be given all the votes to the disadvantage of other political candidates.
"This will teach them a lesson, there are certain things you don't do, it is pure political rascality." he stated.
He said further that, "I am happy that the Supreme Court has stopped that PDP rascality in the state".
"PDP in the state has done it severally and gets away with it so this will teach them and other parties a lesson" Eluemuno posited.
"Every time PDP will come up with list of three or four candidates and it is a deliberate act so that one person will win. With this they should sort out their problems before presenting a candidate next time", he added.




It would be recalled that the Supreme court last week sacked senators Andy Uba representing Anambra South, Uche Ekwunife representing Anambra Central and Stella Odua from Anambra North stating that Ejike Oguebego state Ezecutive of PDP is the recognized one in the state and not the one led by Ken Emeakai that produced the sack senators.
The verdict also sacked House of Representative members from the state who emerged through Emeakai's executive.
