download (46)
hehehehe...Justice Okon Abang of the Federal High Court, Abuja has asked the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to suspend its National Convention fixed for Wednesday in Port Harcourt, Rivers State. Abang gave the order late Monday afternoon while hearing the suit filed to determine who is the authentic National Chairman of the party between Senator Ali Modu Sheriff and Senator Ahmed Makarfi.


Abang had in an earlier judgement sacked Makarfi as the National Chairman of the party.
But Makarfi swiftly filed an appeal to quash the ruling.
His faction is organising the convention in Port Harcourt.
Sheriff, however, insists he remains the national chairman, warning that any convention conducted without his approval is null and void.

The Chairman of the National Caretaker Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party, Senator Ahmed Makarfi, has said that the party’s national convention will go on as scheduled.
He said this while reacting to the order of the Federal High Court, Abuja, which stopped the convention.
He said that the order was not superior to the order the party received from Port Harcourt earlier in the day giving permission to hold the convention.
The former governor said the Court of Appeal will settle the issue later.
He said, “The convention is going ahead as the Abuja Federal High Court is not superior to the Port Harcourt Federal High Court which earlier today gave us the go ahead.
“Court of Appeal will sort it out “
