The Appeal Court sitting in Enugu has declared Hon. Obinna Chidoka as the rightly elected House of Representatives member representing Idemili North and Idemili South federal constituency.

In its ruling, the court ordered INEC to issue a Certificate of Return to Chidoka and withdraw that of the APGA candidate.
Obinna Chidoka, 45, is the younger brother of the former governorship candidate of Anambra State and former FRSC Boss Chief Osita Chidoka, also the former minister of aviation.
