By Bimbo Ogunnaike

The Supreme Court on Tuesday adjourned untill March 2, hearing in an application filed by Emeka Ihedioha, a former governor of Imo, seeking a review of the Jan. 14 judgment sacking him from office.

The Supreme Court has adjourned the hearing of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and Ihedioha’s application to review its earlier decision on the Imo State governorship election.

 Ihedioha and his party, the PDP are praying the court to, among others, reverse its judgment on January 14 which sacked Ihedioha and replaced him with Hope Uzodinma of the All Progressive Congress(APC).

Ihedioha’s lead lawyer, Kanu Agabi, at the mention of the case on Tuesday, sought time to enable parties to file the necessary papers, a request other lawyers in the case did not object to.

 In a brief ruling, a 7-man panel of the apex court, led by the Chief Justice of Nigeria (CJN), Justice Ibrahim Muhammad, granted the request for an adjournment and adjourned till March 2, 2020.
