A former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, Vincent Ogbulafor, has hailed the judgment of the Abia Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal, which upheld Governor Okezie Ikpeazu’s election.
In a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria in Umuahia, Ogbulafor said that he was delighted by the judgment.
“I am extremely very happy with the judgment of the tribunal; one cannot challenge the will of God.
“Ikpeazu has been destined to be governor of Abia; no man or woman can deprive him of that.
“All we can do is to pray fervently for God to give him wisdom and good health to successfully steer the ship of the state.’’
Ogbulafor said that he had confidence in the ability of the governor to do well and acquit himself as governor, adding, “that is why I have stood by him, campaigned with him to win.”
He urged the opposition and all Abia indigenes to “put hands on deck and support Ikpeazu to put Abia right.”

Similarly, the state PDP Chairman, Senator Emma Nwaka, said the party expected victory, adding, “we worked for it.”
