Umahi: APC Should Obey Court Order – Okorocha by NwaNimo1(m): 9:09pm On Mar 09, 2022 |
A former Governor of Imo State, Senator Rochas Okorocha, has told his party – the All Progressives Congress, APC, to continue to respect all court judgments. ![]() The lawmaker, however, said that where the matter has been taken to the court of appeal, it presupposes that the appealing party has obeyed the order of the lower court. Okorocha said this in reaction to the Federal High Court ruling that sacked Governor Dave Umahi as the Governor of Ebonyi State on Tuesday. DAILY POST reported that following his defection to the All Progressives Congress, APC, from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, the Justice Inyang Ekwo-led Court while ruling on a case filed before by the PDP, sacked Umahi and his deputy, KelechiIgwe. The court also sacked all the state House of Assembly members, who left the PDP alongside the governor. However, in a statement on Wednesday, Okorocha said that every pronouncement of the courts should be obeyed, according to Vanguard . He said “unless such [pronouncements are] subjected to a superior court for appeal. In other words, where there is an appeal to a superior court on any matter, the lower court ceases to have authority over the matter. “Nobody in this country should say he will not obey any court order. Section 287 of our constitution makes it clear that every institution and organ of government should be obeyed but thank God for the ruling party, it has respect for the rule of law. “It is assumed that the court order no matter what form and shape it takes must be obeyed, but secondly you have an option to go to the Court of Appeal to allow the superior court suspend the judgment of the lower court.” Okorocha further explained that going to a superior to seek redress to an earlier hearing by a lower court does not mean that one has disobeyed the lower court. https://dailypost.ng/2022/03/09/umahi-apc-should-obey-court-order-okorocha/ |

Okorocha is happy with Umahi sacking because that would be one less Southeast contender for the APC ticket as if that disqualifies Umahi. 1 Like |

PrinceOfLagos: He said “unless such [pronouncements are] subjected to a superior court for appeal. In other words, where there is an appeal to a superior court on any matter, the lower court ceases to have authority over the matter. Read the extract in bold carefully and stop running with the sensational headline. He’s simply saying Umahi should remain in office till the case is finally decided at the highest appellate court. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Why is Okorocha talking like an illiterate? Did the judge order Umahi to vacate within days, at least they must provide provision for at least 2 weeks before vacation and that's even if there is no appeal.. Btw, I am just wondering the kind of politics some Igbo's are playing. Umahi so far is the best performing governor ever presented by SE. Do some Igbo's want someone like Uzodinma to replace Umahi in Ebonyi state cos aya. not understanding this hatred on Umahi because he is in Apc 1 Like |

Dave Umahi will still reclaim his mandate if he's smart. But before he gets on his feet back, he must have forgotten he has a Presidential ambition, if not he will lose out his seat as Ebonyi governor. Politics can be so hilarious. |

When Tinubu declared to run, he had searched himself properly to know he doesn't have any baggages that political enemies can use against him Umahi foolishly declared his intention only to face a major Political firing squad |

Okorocha just as usual did not make any sense. The order is expected to be carried out by INEC, who are waiting for the copy of court’s judgement. All they need to do is to withdraw Umahi’s certificate if it is within the ambits of the law and Umahi is gone. However Umahi has appealed and we are waiting to hear about his stay of execution. |
