Barrister Chijioke Edeoga, the former 2023 Labour Party Governorship candidate in Enugu State have rejoined the Peoples Democratic Party PDP.
According to Dan Nwomeh, the Special Assistant to Governor Peter Mbah on Media, the lawyer arrived the Secretariat of the PDP in the State on Monday ahead of his officially rejoining the party.
“Barr Chijioke Edeoga, former Enugu State Labour Party governorship candidate has arrived the Enugu State PDP headquarters in Enugu as he formally rejoins the party.”
Barrister Edeoga had challenged the declaration of Governor Mbah as the winner of the March 18, 2023 Governorship election. He contested Mbah’s submission of a fake certificate of the National Youth Service Corps NYSC and the irregularities such as over voting seen in many local government.
His petition was dismissed by the Enugu State Petition Tribunal as it ruled that the NYSC certificate was not a mandatory criteria for gubernatorial election. Edeoga appealed to the Court of Appeal which upheld the ruling of the Tribunal. He finally took it to Supreme Court which found no merit in the petition and also unanimously upheld the decision of the lower Court stating that Peter Mbah was duly elected as the Enugu State Governor.
