UMAHI CELEBRATES, PRESIDES OVER STATE EXCO MEETING

By Charles Nwabardi

Ebonyi State Governor, David Umahi, has celebrated the outcome of the suit against him by the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), in the 2019 Governorship election.

It will be recalled that the Appeal Court sitting in Enugu on Friday dismissed the suit for being inconsistent with the 1999 Constitution.

Umahi, while presiding over the weekly state executive council meeting, stated that his enemies tried to use the court to pull him down but they failed.

“The enemies have tried using the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the courts but failed.

They are presently writing all forms of frivolous petitions to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

“We will however, defeat them any where they go and would finish strongly,” he said.
