According him, \u201cunder the 2010 Electoral Act, Prince Nwoko remains the validly and duly recognised candidate of DPP.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Resident Electoral Commissioner said the Commission had not disqualified Prince Nwoko and was not aware of any legal restriction on the DPP candidate to contest the National Assembly election.<\/p>\n<p>In a separate statement\u00a0 by the national secretariat of DPP,\u00a0 the deputy national chairman, Sir Olisaemeka Akamukali, said that the party was solidly behind Prince Nwoko and urged all its members to go out and vote for him (Nwoko) and DPP at the polls.<\/p>\n<p>He said Nwoko was duly nominated and his name\u00a0 published by INEC. He\u00a0\u00a0 dismissed Mr. Paul\u00a0 Azekwoh\u2019s as an interloper.<\/p>\n<p>Akamukali urged Anioma people to vote for Nwoko as the party had challenged the ruling of the Abuja High Court, which he alleged, was masterminded by the Peoples Democractic Party, PDP because it was\u00a0 uncomfortable with Nwoko\u2019s popularity.<\/p>\n<p>Comments are moderated.
