The Apex court in Nigeria also known as the Supreme court sacked Emeka Ihedioha of Peoples Democratic Party on the 14th of January 2020, and Hope Uzodinma of All Progressives Party was declared as the governor of Imo State. 
A senior Legal Luminary and Political analyst Mrs Iyabo Awokoya took her time to analyse the Supreme Court judgement that was earlier made available to the public from her twitter handle @iyaboawokoya:
2. The burden of proof rests on whosoever avers. If you say something happened you prove it. Hope and APC said results from 388 units were excluded. This was their averment & they proved it by bringing the Police on subpoena to bring the copy of the results in those polling units

4. This is in accordance with the Evidence Act (no be me talk am). I watched a twitter clip of a TV persona calling what the Police tendered "photocopy". No Madam, you are wrong. It pains me when those who know NOT, act with such chutzpah and start to believe their own ignorance/

14. NOT CANCELLED. If they were cancelled INEC and the PDP team would have had something to show to give reasons of the cancellation, but in this case, they simply made the results become abracadabra-magically poof into the air. Hmmmmm.
