The Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu has dedicated his victory at the tribunal to the people of the state. 

Ikpeazu while noting that the people spoke through the ballot papers during the last governorship elections said their mandate has been reconfirmed by the tribunal.

He thanked the Judiciary, who according to him, is for the last hope for the common man and extended a hand of fellowship to his opponents.

For the people, the judgment did not come as a surprise as they believe that the result of the last Governorship election was the true reflection of their wish.

Recall that Alex Otti and his party; APGA had approached the tribunal seeking nullification of the election of Governor Ikpeazu and subsequent rerun of election in some Local Government Areas of the State.
