There has been carnival like jubilation in Akokwa and the entire Ideato North and South Federal Constituency following the judgment of the Federal High Court in Owerri declaring Ikenga Imo Ugochinyere as the validly nominated candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the House of Representatives election.
In the judgment, Justice Mabel Segun-Bello declared that the Owerri venue of the Primary election where PDP simultaneously held all legislative election primaries was valid and in compliance with the law.
The heavy downpour in the area did not stop the youths of the Constituency from coming out to march in celebration of the judicial victory.
They said this is in line with the wishes of the people and the heavy rain was divine as God was using it to wash away impunity and backwardness from their land.
The youths also resolved to organize a grand reception for their son in whom they say they are well pleased where they will make a declaration for his election and show the world that Ideato nation is united behind Ikenga for House of Representatives.
