Abia gov: EFCC should probe judge, INEC— PDP chieftain

Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, chieftain and former special assistant to Dr Alex Ekwueme, Mr Ben Onyechere, has called on the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to probe the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, and Justice Okon Abang of the FCT High Court over the annulment of the election of Governor Okezie Ikpeazu over allegations of tax evasion.

According to him, the effects of the ruling which he described as an assault on the sensibilities of Abia electorate and the Nigerian populace at large can only be ameliorated when the judge and INEC are questioned.
