Drama as 2 PDP Members Struggle for Certificate of Return








A drama ensued on Friday at the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Enugu, when two persons presented themselves to collect the certificate of return for the Nsukka/Igboeze South federal constituency.



The two men, Ikechukwu Ugwuegede and Patrick Asadu, both members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), were engulfed in a legal tussle over the party’s candidacy for the election.



Mr. Asadu, a member of the House of Representatives, secured a ruling at the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja recognising him as the right candidate for the election.

Mr. Ugwuegede, however, appealed the ruling.



NAN reports that the two appeared at the INEC office during the presentation of certificates of return to the governor- elect and National Assembly members-elect, but were denied the certificate. Each of the candidates pleaded to the National Commissioner of INEC, Gladys Nwafor, to collect the certificate but the commissioner declined.
