The Supreme Court has adjourned the hearing till 2 March 2020 in the application by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and sacked Imo Governor, Emeka Ihedioha.

The PDP and Ihedioha are, by the application, praying the court to, among others, reverse its judgment on 14 January 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 to 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 an adjournment and adjourned till 2 March 2020.
