In a recent judicial decision with political implications, the election tribunal has upheld the election victory of Hon. Eze Gabriel, representing the Labour Party in Isi-Uzo State Constituency in the Enugu State House of Assembly.
The tribunal ruled to dismiss the petition filed by Hon. Catherine Amaka Ugwueze of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). The tribunal cited the lack of merit in the petition and deemed it frivolous and vexatious.
One notable factor contributing to this decision was Hon. Amaka Ugwueze’s absence from the tribunal proceedings, which resulted in her failure to present evidence to support her case.

Instead, the petitioners relied solely on the testimony of one witness, Odo Clifford, who asked the tribunal to declare him as the winner of the election that Hon. Amaka Ugwueze had challenged.
This tribunal decision reinforces the victory of Hon. Eze Gabriel and the Labour Party in Isi-Uzo State Constituency, further solidifying their representation in the Enugu State House of Assembly. The ruling underscores the importance of active and substantive participation in the electoral and legal processes, particularly in election-related disputes.
