Crisis deepens as High Court stops PDP congress in Rivers State
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) crisis in Rivers State escalated yesterday, following a court ruling restraining its leadership from conducting its proposed congress.
The High Court sitting in Port Harcourt, the state capital, restrained the party from conducting the congress scheduled for July 27.
The court issued the order in a suit filed by 11 plaintiffs against the chapter, the National Chairman of PDP, the Financial Secretary and the Organising Secretary
The Presiding Judge, Justice Sobere Biambo, issues an order of interim injunction restraining the defendants from organising the congress on July 27 or any other day, pending the determination of the suit.
The court also stopped the PDP from taking any decision or giving any directive to further extend the already expired tenure of the ward, local government and state executive officers of the party.
The court adjourned the matter to July 19 for the motion on notice already filed.
