Nigeria’s Supreme Court sitting in Abuja, on Friday, sacked the remaining senators and members of the House of Representatives from Anambra State.

The decision swept away a host of lawmakers from Anambra State, including the Senator representing Anambra North Senatorial District, Stella Oduah and her counterpart representing Anambra South Senatorial District, Andy Ubah. Also affected are members of the House of Representatives elected on the ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

Chris Uba, younger brother to Andy Uba, and Prince Emeka are expected to take over seats vacated by Andy Uba and Stella Oduah respectively.

Former Senator Annie Okonkwo is in line to represent the PDP in a forthcoming election to fill a senatorial seat held by Uche Ekwunife who was sacked last December by the Court of Appeal.

In December 2014, the Federal High Court had ruled that it was only the constitutionally recognized state party leadership led by Ejike Oguebego that could organize the party primaries.

The Supreme Court’s ruling today, reaffirmed the High Court’s verdict, declaring that the Ejike Oguebego-led PDP executive had the sole right to hold the primaries in Anambra State.

German-Based Isuochi-Born Nigerian Artiste Set To Release New Single, “Music Makes Me High”

He sounds like none ever heard before. His ease of rendition and delivery, like none but himself. It is a combination of jazz, country, soul and folk to form a sound that is synonymous to Che, alone.

‘I find trouble placing my music into a category as my music is not bound by rules but rather an expression of my feelings as they occur…in their raw form,’ he says of his music type.

A Nigerian born Germany based musician,  Che, (the first son of Senator Uche Chukwumerije, of blessed memory), has returned home to make music that would appeal to Nigerians, a music that is drawn from his deep but daily interaction with life that sometimes go unnoticed, a deliberate connect with the recesses of his soul.

His music conveys a strong message that would initiate a paradigm shift in the way music is perceived in Nigeria and consequently, add to the genres legging Nigeria’s music landscape.
