Court Authorises PDP To Go Ahead With Convention by jamesibor: 8:42pm On Aug 16, 2016 |
A Federal High Court sitting in Port Harcourt has declared that July 4, 2016 ruling of Justice M. Liman on the decision of the National Convention that removed the former acting national chairman of the Peoples Democratic People, Ali Modu Sheriff, remains valid. Delivering a judgment on Suit Number FHC/PH /CS /585/2016, filed by Senator Ben Obi for himself and other members of the National Planning Committee of the PDP, against the Inspector-General of Police, the Rivers State Commissioner of Police, the Department of State Services and the Independent National Electoral Commission, Justice Ibrahim Watila insisted that since the July 4 judgement had not been set aside by a higher court, its judgement remained effective. Justice Watila specifically said that the 1st, 3rd and 5th defendants in the matter; Inspector General of Police, Department of State Services and the Independent National Electoral Commission were also bound by the July ruling. Senator Ben Obi had asked the court to rule on whether the July 4, 2016 judgement was binding on the 1st, 3rd and 5th defendants in the matter. The trial judge explained that the court was always jealous of its ruling until it was set aside by a higher court, maintaining that, “Every authority expected to carry out a court judgement should not assist in flouting such court orders.” “This court will not shy away from protecting the sanctity of its judgment. The court has held that the appointment of the PDP National Caretaker Committee is valid,” he added. http://punchng.com/pdp-convention-decision-remains-valid-court-insists/ 1 Like |

A Federal High Court in PH can not set aside or overrule the Orders of a Federal High Court in Abuja - Both has Concurrent Jurisdiction. Only the same court or a high court can do so. What is killing PDP is Greed and Stubbornness. When PDP were dead broke, Sheriff can and rescued them - paid bills, debts, rents, salaries, etc. In exchange he became Oga Chair. PDP must humble, beg Sheriff and settle this out of court. As it stands now, Sheriff is sitting tight on PDP matter. 5 Likes 1 Share |

SuperS1Panther: Any day a "Sheriff" becomes your Tenant, it will take the entire Solar System to evict him from the property. He was on his own when PDP and their Poverty begged him to come and rescue them. Today, the guy is a very stubborn visitor. The sad part is he has the capacity to pull a very large chunk of PDP if push comes to shove. 3 Likes |

dunkem21: Go to FrontPage, the latest Ruling is there. Sheriff is on top of PDP matter. This story you are pushing here has been overtaken by event. Until PDP humble themselves, kneel down and beg Sheriff and he withdraws his case from the court, only then can peace be insight. Even Jonathan asked them to go and beg Sheriff. All this Collabo between FFK, Fayose and Wike cannot stop Sheriff. 2 Likes |
