APGA To Ask Court To Declare Okorocha’s Seat Vacant Over APC Romance
Umeh said the party would be relying on the Supreme Court judgment in Rotimi Amaechi vs Celestine Omehia and the Peoples Democratic Party, which decided in a landmark ruling that the electorate voted for a political party and not individuals.
He said, “Okorocha’s case is entirely a different thing and the party has suspended him for his actions and despite the statements by his aides and his deputy that they are in the APC for good. We are waiting for him to make a formal declaration on joining the APC.
Asked whether the governor was risking expulsion, the APGA chairman said, “The choice is his,” adding, “ordinarily, we won’t like to expel a governor that was elected through our platform.”
