JUST IN: Hope Uzodinma receives certificate of return as Imo Governor-Elect

After hours of delaye Senator Hope Uzodinma of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has finally received the Certificate of Return from the Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) as the governor-elect of Imo State.

He was awarded the certificate on Wednesday, barely 24 hours after the Supreme Court nullified the election of Emeka Ihedioha as the governor of the state.

Meanwhile, the exercise had been delayed because the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) said that it will not issue to the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Hope Uzodinma Certificate of Return as duly elected governor of Imo State until it is served with the enrolled order of the Supreme Court Judgment.
