Court nullifies rescheduled PDP primaries in Ebonyi

A federal high court sitting in Abakaliki, has nullified the rescheduled primaries of PDP, Ebonyi state, which took place on 4th and 5th of June 2022.

The court, presided by Justice Fatun Riman, upheld the primary of 28th and 29th, May 2020, which was cancelled by the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party.

The court also restrained the party from refusing to receive and transmit the name of Mr Ifeanyi Ọdịi, who won the cancelled governorship primaries, to INEC as the candidate of the party for Ebonyi 2023 governorship election.

Senator Obinna Ọgba won the rescheduled election, which the court declared null, void and illegal.
