The suit filed by a chieftain of APC in the state, Akpan Udoedeghe, through his lawyer, Mahmud Magaji is contending that Umana was not validly nominated by the APC to participate in the Akwa Ibom State governorship election.
He told the court that Umana was not a registered member of the party as at the day he bought his form to contest the April 11, 2015 governorship election that was eventually nullified by the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja.
The plaintiff insisted that Umana, whom he said was previously a member of the People’s Democratic Party- PDP, neither registered at the ward level of the party nor was he granted a waiver prior to the governorship poll.
Udoedeghe, told the court that as at the time APC ticket was handed to him, Umana was still in court contesting for the governorship ticket of the PDP.
