The Supreme Court on Wednesday declared Ifeanyi Chukwuma Odii as the validly elected Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Ebonyi State.
The apex court delivered the verdict in its ruling on an appeal filed by Odii on the PDP governorship ticket.
Odii and Senator Obinna Ogba had been locked in a legal battle on the right to represent the major opposition party in the 2023 governorship election in Ebonyi.
The Federal High Court, Abakaliki, had in June declared the former as PDP governorship candidate in the state.
However, the Court of Appeal, Abuja, on June 19 set aside the ruling and pronounced Ogba as the party’s duly elected candidate.
Dissatisfied with the ruling, Odii approached the Supreme Court to overturn the verdict.
