A Federal High Court sitting in Umuahia has dismissed a case brought against the member representing Ukwa East/Ukwa West federal constituency of Abia State, Chris Nkwonta.

The case, which was filed by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, had prayed  the Federal High Court to declare the seat of the lawmaker vacant for defecting from the PDP to the All Progressive Congress, APC.

The PDP had in the case alleged that Nkwonta’s action violated section 68(1) (g) of the 1999 constitution of the PDP, and prayed the court to order a conduct of  bye-election in the Federal constituency within 90 days to fill the House of Representatives member’s seat.

But delivering his judgement, Justice S.B.Onu, who presided over the matter, dismissed it for lack of diligent prosecution and lack of interest in matter by the plaintiff.

Meanwhile, the member representing Ukwa East/ Ukwa West federal constituency, Chris Nkwonta who won the All Progressive Congress, APC primary election has received his certificate of return as the party’s candidate for 2027 House of Representatives election.

His certificate of return was presented to him at the APC office in Umuahia by the APC National Assembly primary election Returning Officer for Abia State, Erasmus Cishak.

The National Chairman of the Labour Party, LP, and the Chairman of the party’s screening committee, Senator Nenadi Usman, has disclosed that the committee has exempted the party leader and current Governor of Abia State, Chief Alex Otti, from the screening exercise.

While addressing the media regarding the results of the aspirants’ screening, Senator Nenadi mentioned that the party had previously acquired nomination forms for the governor, and that the waiver also included his exemption from the screening process.

She said, “Is it possible for the leader of the House to come for screening, just like it’s done in other parties? In the party that he nurtures?

“Well, we had waived off screening for him. We gave him a waiver. We took the forms and gave them to him and told him we didn’t expect him to pay anything for it. We also had a ceremony where we presented the forms to him. Not just his form, but several other forms.”

According to a report by DAILY POST, Otti, who is campaigning for a second term as Governor of Abia State, received his Labour Party nomination forms at no cost from the National Working Committee (NWC) led by Nenadi Usman.

Senator Usman praised Governor Otti for being a prominent representative of the Labour Party and for diligently upholding the party’s principles of Equal Opportunities and Social Justice in the administration of Abia State.

She emphasized that this gesture was a recognition of the governor’s exemplary performance in office and served as encouragement for him to persist in providing quality governance to the citizens of the state.
