A Federal High Court in Abuja has stopped the Peoples Democratic Party from going ahead with its planned national convention scheduled to take place on August 17.
The Ali Modu Sheriff-faction of the national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party had filed an application on July 4 for an interlocutory injunction seeking to stop the convention.
The plaintiffs had contended that that by virtue of the PDP’s Constitution, they must remain in office till 2018.
They also urged the court to declare all moves aimed at removing, replacing or conducting fresh elections into their offices as illegal, unlawful, unconstitutional, null and void.
