The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has listed Sylvester Ezeokenwa as the national chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA).
The development followed the Supreme Court ruling which declared Ezeokenwa as APGA chairma
A five-member panel of the apex court led by Justice Stephen Adah in the ruling delivered in November dismissed an appeal filed by Edozie Njoku, who also laid claim to the position.
The INEC National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee, Sam Olumekun, confirmed the development in a statement on Tuesday in Abuja.
The statement read:
“The commission has been served with the judgement of the Supreme Court with Appeal No. SC/CV/824/2024 APGA & ANOR vs OYE & ORS, delivered on 27th November 2024, recognising Barr. Sylvester (Sly) Ezeokenwa as the Chairman of the party.”
“In compliance with the judgement of the apex court, the Commission has restored Barr. Ezeokenwa as the chairman of APGA and restored his name on our website accordingly.”
