Bro Obuah in a statement while reacting to the court judgement that the March 19, re-run election in Tai which was suspended mid-way by the electoral umpire was officially approved and binding, and that it would be illegal, illegitimate and morally wrong for the same INEC to want to release election results either in whole or parts from same election earlier suspended, said it has restored the hope of the people of Tai and South East Senatorial District.
He totally agreed to the court reasoning that attempting to declare the suspended Tai result would be tantamount to double standard by INEC who ab-initio created the confusion.
The State PDP Chairman also gave kudos on the order by the court that no results in whatever form emanating from the suspended March 19 Tai re-run election should be declared by INEC, stressing that the only acceptable re-run election in the area is the expected December 10, polls.

It would be recalled that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, had approached the court to compel the INEC not to declare any results from the suspended March 19, re-run election in Tai LGA against the backdrop that the electoral body attempted to release some of the results against its own order.
Bro Obuah said the court judgement has restored the hope of the people of South East Senatorial District, describing the attempt by the All Progressives Congress, APC, to get away with victory through the backdoor as a shame and failed mission.
