Supporters and followers of the political development in Imo State where the People’s Democratic Party, PDP and ousted Governor Emeka Ihedioha have approached the Supreme Court for a review of the gubernatorial verdict may have to wait a lot more.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday dashed the hope of many that thronged the court awaiting for the verdict as it has adjourned hearing till March 2.
The PDP and Ihedioha are, by the application, praying the court to, among others, reverse its judgment on January 14 this, which sacked Ihedioha and replaced him with Hope Uzodinma of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
At the mention of the case on Tuesday, Ihedioha’s lead lawyer, Kanu Agabi sought for time to enable parties file the necessary papers, a request other lawyers in the case did not object to.
A seven-man panel of the Supreme Court, led by the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Ibrahim Muhammad, in a brief ruling, granted the request for adjournment and adjourned till March 2, 2020
