Immediate-past governor of Delta State and All Progressives Congress (APC) 2019 Delta South senatorial candidate, Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan, has said that an Abuja High Court never nullified his candidature and ordered the APC to conduct fresh primaries for Delta South Senatorial District.

The said court order followed a suit filed by AVM Terry Omatsola Okorodudu (Rtd) challenging the candidature of the former governor.

The former Governor, in a statement by his media assistant, Monoyo Edon, stressed that he was not aware of the case nor joined in the alleged suit.

The statement noted that the court had at no time ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to remove his name from the list of candidates in the 2019 senatorial election which holds this Saturday.

It added that Dr Uduaghan had instructed his lawyers to take necessary legal steps on the matter, even as he enjoined APC faithful and supporters to come out en mass to vote the party and all its candidates to victory in the elections.
