Nwosu, was disqualified by the apex court on December 20, 2019, on the ground of double nominations by Action Alliance and All Progressives Congress, respectively.
Speculations are rift in the state that since the supreme court said that Nwosu who is senator Rochas Okorocha’s son-in-law was nominated by APC he was the rightful beneficiary of the supreme court judgment declaring senator Hope Uzodinma, as the duly elected governor of the state.
But Nwosu on Friday said that he would never go back to the apex court to challenge the declaration of Uzodinma as the new governor of the state.
He said that he had pledged his 100 percent support to the new governor and would not go back on his words.
Nwosu said “my attention has been drawn to a fake news making the rounds on the internet, that I, Ugwumba Uche Nwosu, has approached the Supreme Court, asking to be declared the governor of Imo State.
“This fake news was obviously planted by mischievous elements who are discomfited by the new found spirit of love, reconciliation and peace in our Party and the State.
“Let me quickly clarify that I will not go back on my commitment to our great Party, the All Progressives Congress and Imo people on supporting the administration of His Excellency Senator Hope Odidika Uzodimma, the duly affirmed governor of Imo State.”
He urged the people of the state to support the new governor, saying ” Imo has won.”
