Alex Oti is the next borne of contention Ikpeazu have to overcome to remain the Governor of Abia state till the next four
years.
Let me summarize them:
Uche Ogah: He is seeking the court to disqualify Ikpeazu
over allegation of forging his Tax clearance receipts, the Tax Clearance
Certificate in Form IT 70, reference No. SPA/HQ/2437 with serial number 095827
and dated 04/07/2014, which was submitted by Ikpeazu to both INEC and the PDP,
showing payment of his Income Tax for the years 2011, 2012 and 2013, that it were
forged.The suit is not challenging Ikpeazu’s victory at the PDP primaries held
on December 8th 2014 at Umuahia Township Stadium.

Friday Nwosu:
His suit is inconcomitant with Ogah’s suit but
a slight difference,Nwosu is praying the court to Disqualify Ikpeazu over
allegation of forging his Tax Clearance receipt,then “An order setting aside
the nomination of Uche Ogah by PDP as its gubernatorial candidate in Abia State
for the 2015 general election. According to Nwosu, that in accordance with the
constitution PDP, Uche Ogah who is from Abia North senatorial zone, cannot be
nominated or fielded as the gubernatorial candidate PDP for the Abia State
gubernatorial election 2015 on the grounds of zoning and rotation policy of PDP
as provided for in chapter 1, section 7(3)(c) and. Chapter 3. Part 1, section
10(1)(a) of PDP constitution as amended and dated 26th day of March, 2012 and PDP
having zoned the 2015 governorship slot to Abia South Senatorial Zone where the
Ikpeazu comes from.”

election tribunal sitting in umuahia to Declare the Results of Obingwa,Osisioma
Et al Cancelled on the grounds of massive rigging,the suit also is asking the
Tribunal to prove wether it was right for the Returning office Prof.Ozumba to

Those are the litigation hanging on Ikpeazu’s
shoulders,generally i will say APGA is also a PDP affir having adopted Jonathan
as its candidate for the Presidential poll.

Who do you think can scale through the court Process?
