PDP’s Interim Committee to Challenge Court Ruling at Supreme Court

The Interim National Working Committee (INWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), led by Dr. Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, has decided to challenge a recent Court of Appeal ruling at the Supreme Court. The appellate court did not recognize the Turaki-led group as the legitimate leadership of the party.

The Court of Appeal upheld an earlier decision from the Federal High Court, which also refused to validate the Turaki faction. This ruling came after an appeal was filed by former Senate President Adolphus Wabara and others against the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and several others.

In response to the ruling, the INWC stated that it respects the court’s decision but is determined to pursue justice at the Supreme Court. Comrade Ini Ememobong, the National Publicity Secretary, emphasized their commitment to seeking the truth and justice.

Ememobong also highlighted the importance of the PDP maintaining its independence as an opposition party. He urged party members to stay united and strong as they navigate this legal challenge.

The INWC believes that their struggle will ultimately benefit the future of multiparty democracy in Nigeria. They expressed hope that their efforts will lead to a positive outcome in the Supreme Court.
