Princess Miriam Odinaka Onuoha of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has won the House of Representatives rerun election for the Isiala Mbano/Onuimo/Okigwe federal constituency in Imo State.
Princess Onuoha defeated her closest rival Obinna Onwubuariri of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the rerun election that was held in 18 polling units in the constituency.
It would be recalled that an Appeal Court sitting in Owerri had upheld the sacking of Onwubuariri as the member representing Isiala Mbano/Onuimo/Okigwe federal constituency in the House of Representatives.
This followed Princess Onuoha’s ability to prove her claim of over-voting, mutilation of figures and violence in the petition she filed at the tribunal.
Onuoha, a native of Umunachi Osu-Ama in Insiala Mbano Local Government Area of Imo, will now represent bano/Onuimo/Okigwe
federal constituency at the House of Representatives following her victory.
Onuoha, who is fondly called “Mama SURE-P”, had promised to leave a footprint of development in Okigwe North if elected into office.
Princess Miriam is a graduate of Estate Management from the University of Lagos (UNILAG).
She holds a masters degree in Environmental Planning and Protection from the University of Abuja.
