Udeze Is Action Alliance National Chair – Court

Justice Obiora Egwuatu of the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, has affirmed Chief Kenneth Udeze, as the lawfully recognized national chairman of Action Alliance (AA).

The court dismissed the case filed by Adekunle Rufai Omoaje, challenging the chairmanship of Udeze.
Omoaje and his faction had filed the case in suit number FHC/CS/12/2024 praying the court to recognise his faction and their National convention held in Abeokuta, Ogun State, as being lawful and valid.

After considering the legal submissions of Ezenwa Ibegbunam, Counsel for Chief Udeze and the long list of judgments of various courts on the issue, the court agreed with the submission of Ibegbunam and dismissed the suit.

This has brought to an end the lingering leadership tussle affecting the party.

The party can now focus on participating in upcoming elections in the country.

Reacting to the judgment, Chief Kenneth Udeze described the landmark judgment as a vindication of rule of law in the country which had laid to rest the issue of the illegal and fictitious claim of Omoaje over the party leadership.

Chief Udeze also commended INEC for its respect for the rule of law and for upholding due process in handling the leadership issues.
