The Tanimu Turaki-led Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has
assured members that the party remains legally intact after an Ibadan Federal
High Court judgment which nullified its Ibadan National Convention.
The party spoke in a statement issued by National Publicity
Secretary, Comrade Ini Ememobong, on Friday.
The court declined to grant an order of mandamus sought by
the party, reasoning that doing so would amount to sitting on appeal over
judgments of courts of coordinate jurisdiction.
In response, the party said it has instructed its lawyers to
immediately file an appeal and take all necessary legal steps to advance its
arguments and protect its position.
The Turaki-led PDP leadership, which emerged from the Ibadan
National Convention, emphasized that it remains “legally intact and unshaken”
as it awaits decisions from appellate courts.
Ememobong said, “Not withstanding this judgment, our party
remains firmly on course. We urge our members to stay resolute and committed
there is absolutely no cause for alarm.”
The party reiterated that its Rebirth Movement remains on
course.
