The Federal High Court, sitting in Abakaliki, have voided the Local Government Area election conducted by Ebonyi State Independent Electoral Commission Ebseic, in the state.

The Presiding Judge, Fatun Riman, ruled that the conduct of the Ebonyi local government election was undemocratic and unlawful and, therefore, declared it null and void.

The Counsel to the Plaintiffs, Mudi Erenede while addressing newsmen declared that it was undemocratic and unlawful to conduct an election into the local government areas or council elections without availing the plaintiffs with the exact law that is meant to regulate the exercise.

The election, which was conducted on July 30, 2022, has been causing lots of disagreements among the opposition political parties, even as they argued that the election was conducted without following due process of law and provisions of the new Electoral Act, 2022.
