Nigerians on twitter have reacted to the Supreme Court’s judgment which sacked Emeka Ihedioha as governor of Imo State and declared Hope Uzodinma of the All Progressives Congress, APC, winner of the election.
In the March 2019 governorship poll, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared that Uzodinma came a distant fourth position. But the Supreme ruled that 213,295 votes in 388 polling in favour of APC were unlawfully removed, hence he has now been declared winner of the election.
While many Nigerians were shocked by the judgment, others simply congratulated Uzodinma for the victory. See reactions below.
