Breaking:Supreme courts sacks Stella Oduah, Andy Uba from senate-orders replacement!

The Nigeria’s un-appealable court, the Supreme court has sacked Senator Stella Odua and Senator Chris Ubah of the opposition Peoples Democratic party, PDP from the Senate.
With this judgement, all the senators from Anambra have been sacked following earlier sack of Senator Uche Ekwunife.

While Uba represented Anambra south senatorial district, the other affected lawmaker represented Anambra north senatorial district.
To replace them, according to the Supreme Court, are Chris Ubah (Anambra South) and Annie Okonkwo (Anambra Central)

Ekwunife has since defected to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), where she is struggling to pick a ticket to return to the senate.

Uba, a two-time lawmaker, was former special adviser on domestic affairs to ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo, while Oduah was the former minister of aviation, who was embroiled in the controversy over the purchase of two bullet-proof BMW cars.
