Alleged forgery: Court issues arrest warrant against ex-Imo gov, Okorocha, Araraume

A Senior Magistrate Court in Abuja has issued arrest warrants for former Imo State Governor Rochas Okorocha, Senator Ifeanyi Araraume, and others over allegations of conspiracy, forgery, and submitting false documents. The warrants, issued on September 9, 2026, authorize police across Nigeria to arrest the accused and bring them before the court. INEC has dismissed a circulated document claiming Okorocha won the APC senatorial primary, confirming that Hope Uzodimma was the legitimate winner and calling for an investigation into the forgery.
