'Justice not for sale' – Okorocha warns Uzodinma after court win

Former Governor Rochas Okorocha cautioned his successor, Governor Hope Uzodinma, that justice is not for sale following a recent court victory. During an interview on Channels Television's Politics Today, Okorocha expressed his satisfaction with the Federal High Court's ruling, which declared him the legitimate All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for Imo West Senatorial District.

Okorocha emphasized that the judiciary had proven that justice cannot be bought or sold to the highest bidder. He recounted how his own name was widely reported as forging documents during his tenure and highlighted the court's agreement with his claims. Okorocha accused Uzodinma of submitting a document on May 16, two days before the actual primary on May 18, and even having INEC certify a judgment in his favor, stating that he emerged by consensus.

The same group he referred to submitted a separate document on the same day, claiming his election took place on May 16. Okorocha defiantly challenged anyone dissatisfied with the judgment to appeal, vowing that he would handle any attempts to appeal. He asserted that all courts had agreed with his decision and vowed to address any appeals that may arise.
