Yesterday's Abuja federal high court judgement sacking governor Dave Umahi of Ebonyi state and his deputy for defecting to the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC) after being elected on the platform of the PDP, just dealt a mortal blow to the presidential ambition of the civil engineer-turned politician..

Even if he files his appeal and stay of execution this very minute, I'm certain the appeal will ultimately end in the Apex court and there is little chance that it would be conclusively decided before the APC primaries. No party wants to field a Presidential candidate that is not sure of his status. No matter how you look at it, it is a lose lose for Umahi.

But then, it will help lay to rest the controversy surrounding whether or not an office holder elected on the platform of a political party can, while his tenure still subsists, jump to another political party and still retain his mandate acquired through votes which the court has since ruled belong to the political party, not the candidate.

On a lighter note, someone had better check on governor Ayade of Cross River and his colleague in Zamfara and numberless national as well as state assembly members who are all sitting on this table.
APC have zoned presidency to the south and vice president to the North East, what is the Hope of Dave Umahi's presidential ambition?

Not Kangaroo bro, elections are won by party not individuals that's why only party name and logo is in ballot paper. Technically and morally if you defect after wining a contested seat you have to vacate the seat. You can't eat your cake and have it.

Ikwo is remote, village

Zombies are too daft.

Surprised constitutional provisions are being raped.

An election won by a party remains that of the party and not the individual office holder.

They will not hear.
