A son-in-law to the Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, Mr Uche Nwosu has expressed optimisim that he was going to get justice in court and his name will be on the ballot paper in the 2019 governorship election in Imo State.
Nwosu, who addressed hundreds of his supporters in Owerri on Tuesday described Hope Uzodinma, whose name was submitted to INEC by the leadership of APC as ‘a tenant in the party…hence he cannot be governor of the state.
“I am the lawful governorship candidate of the APC in Imo state. Our national chairman did not respect the rule of law and the constitution of our party in substituting senator Hope Uzodinma’s name for mine.
“The records are very clear. I won the first primary election on October 2. I also won the second primary held on October 6. The records are there. The police, INEC and DSS reports affirm my victories.”
“It is only for a matter of time. We will get justice in court. My name shall be on the ballot. I shall be announced as the APC governorship candidate in Imo state. Hope Uzodinma won’t be governor.”
