Just In: Court nullifies all APC primaries in Rivers State

A Federal High Court sitting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, has nullified all the primaries conducted by All Progressive Congress in the state.


Some aggrieved APC members loyal to the Governorship Candidate of SDP, Magnus Abe, had approached the Court, challenging the conduct of the Primary election with claims of exclusion from the delegates’ primaries conducted in the State.


However, One George Orlu and four others who claimed to have purchased nomination forms had approached the court requesting that the primaries of APC in the state be nullified following their alleged exclusion in the process.

Justice E.A. Obile, in his ruling, held that the aggrieved persons were shut out of the primaries unlawfully, adding that the process amounted to nullity.

Obile in the judgment agreed with the plaintiffs that they were wrongly excluded in the process to participate in the party primaries.

He, therefore, ruled that all those elected from the primary stand nullifed and should not be recognized as candidates.
