Imo Judgment: PDP Ends Protest To Avoid Confrontation

Published

on

Members of the  Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), protesting against last Tuesday’s judgment of the Supreme Court that sacked  Emeka Ihedioha as Governor of  Imo State in Abuja brought the protest to an abrupt end.

The decision to end the protest unprepared was to avoid physical confrontation with members of the ruling All Progressives Congress, (APC) who were also protesting in support of the judgment. .  

The apex court had held that the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Chief Hope Uzodinma, is the duly elected governor of the state and ordered that he should be sworn in as the governor of the state.

The protest which commenced from the PDP complex in Maitama, Abuja popularly called the Legacy House, continued to the Supreme Court, but on getting to the Eagles Square, they noticed that suspected members of APC had gathered at the Supreme Court junction.

The protest also ended with some PDP members sustaining injury in an accident and were rushed to hospital for treatment.

Some of the PDP leaders at the protest included the PDP National Chairman, Uche Secondus; the 2019 Vice-President candidate, Peter Obi; and the Senate Minority Leader, Enyinnaya Abaribe.

Also present were members of the PDP National Working Committee as well as the PDP Youth Leader, Ude Okoye.
