Well PDP National legal team just released this statement... RE: JUSTICE ABANG'S JUDGMENT: 28/7/2016 That judgment of Justice Abang is indeed, a still born baby. This is against the background of the judgment of the Federal Capital Territory high court nullifying the relevant section of the PDP constitution which previously allowed the Party's NEC to appoint a person in place of another until the end of the tenure originally prescribed for that other person. Sheriff was a product of that section. The legal effect of the earlier judgment is that Sheriff should have at best been National Chairman till the next PDP convention. Incidentally, that convention took place in port harcourt without any court order restraining same. The convention dissolved the Party's NEC & NWC. The court order secured by Sheriff before the convention was an injunction restraining the convention from electing persons into certain offices. The order did not restrain the convention from holding neither did it restrain the convention from dissolving PDP's NEC & NWC. That was where Sheriff's team shot itself on the foot. The convention has the powers to sack any organ of the party once it is properly convened as in this case. That is purely an internal matter within the party. Sheriff is clearly an irritant to democracy & would be duly tamed by the court of Appeal. He appears to be deliberately obstructing the main opposition party from settling down to the business of checking the ruling party's excesses to the detriment of the NIGERIAN people. Effective & constructive opposition would normally help the ruling party to review its policies & adjust same to meet the needs of the governed in the socio-political contract entered into between the government & the people by means of a general election predicated on certain electoral promises. This is what happens in in most democratic clime else where in the world. Justice Abang's judgment was largely predicted & would not stand superior judicial scrutiny. Even when it was obvious that the plaintiffs arranged legal representation for some of the defendants in the matter, the judge entered the arena by refusing genuine legal representation with apparent authority and decided which counsel of the contending lot should represent PDP. That was an injudicious exercise of discretion. PDP National Legal Team. 1 Like |

Hope they won't take this release for an Appeal or are they appealing Justice Abang's judgment at the People's Court? Sheriff should understand that he alone cannot fill the gap or hope he's not playing a role for APC 2 Likes 1 Share |

Go to appeal court and stop this so call attacking press release. Federal high court in Lagos stopped you from electing chairman in Ph convention that the office was not empty yet you did, and you went to another federal high court in Ph and it gave judgment in ur favor which Sheriff called Ikwere court judgment, he went to Abuja high court and got a favor there too! You went back to ph high court and got another favor and he went back to abuja and got a favor yesterday. None of u ve gone to appeal court. So far is sheriff 3, makarfi 2. 3 Likes 1 Share |
