The Federal High Court in Abuja presided over by Justice Peter Lifu has restrained governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the National Working Committee (NWC) and Board of Trustees (BoT) of the party from tampering with or dissolving the Executive Committees of the party in Rivers State.
The court also restrained the aforementioned from forming any interim committee to replace the officers of the party at the state, local governments and ward levels who are loyal to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, in Rivers State.
The court issued the order in its ruling in an ex-parte application brought before it by the PDP Rivers State Executive Committee led by Aaron Chukwuemeka and his counterparts at the local governments and ward levels.
Justice Lifu also ordered the PDP national body and others not to tamper with or dissolve the local governments and ward leadership of the PDP in Rivers State who were said to have been elected along with the State Executive Committee this year at various congresses of the party.
