Appeal court sitting in Lagos State has sacked Hon Emeka Nnamani of the Labour Party as the member representing Aba North and South Federal Constituency over certificate forgery committed in 2015.
The court declared Alex Ikwechegh of APGA winner of the Constituency.
The appellate court upheld the ruling of the Tribunal on September 11th which held that Nnamani was convicted of forging UNIPORT degree certificate in 2015 and was barred from seeking for public office for 10 years.
The appeal court said that the ruling of the tribunal in 2015 which was upheld by the Appeal Court in the same year still subsists and dismissed the Labour Party’s candidate appeal.
With this sack, Nnamani has lost twice on the bases of certificate forgery.
