The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has shortlisted Hon. Iduma Igariwey to replace the sacked Governor of Ebonyi state, David Umahi.

Maxilensnews reports that a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja had sacked Governor Umahi and his Deputy, Dr Eric Kelechi Igwe, following their defection from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

PDP National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, who disclosed this at a world press conference on Tuesday in Abuja, hailed the judgement, saying “the judiciary is indeed the backbone of this democracy.”
