INEC explains delay in issuing Certificate of Return to Imo governor-elect, Hope Uzodinma

The Independent National Electoral Commission INEC has explained the reason for the delay in issuing the Imo state governor-elect, Hope Uzodinma, his certificate of return.   According to the explanation, the Supreme Court's unanimous judgment on January 14th, which declared Uzodinma of the APC as the winner of the March 9th state governorship election and ordered INEC to withdraw the Certificate of Return issued to Emeka Ihedioha, is yet to be received by the commission.   As a result, the electoral commission is unable to immediately carry out the court's order.
