The Court of Appeal, Abuja division has reserved judgments in six appeals filed against two judgments of the Federal High Court, Abuja, sacking Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State.
The court reserved judgments in the appeals after listening to parties made their final submissions and adopted their briefs of argument on Tuesday.
The appeals included three filed by Ikpeazu, two filed by the PDP and another filed by Friday Nwosu, a PDP governorship candidate, who came fifth in the party’s primary.
Justice Okon Abang of the Federal High Court in Abuja had voided Ikpeazu’s election for allegedly making false claims in the tax information he submitted preparatory to the governorship primary in the state.
The judgement prompted Governor Ikpeazu to file an appeal seeking to overturn the judgement.
The date for the ruling is yet to be fixed
