The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Rivers state on Friday, October 4, warned the state governor, Siminialayi Fubara, of the consequences of disobeying the Federal High Court judgement outlawing the conduct of October 5, local government elections.
The PDP said that nobody should participate in or allow the conduct of any local government elections that deviated from the court’s judgment.
The PDP state chairman, Chukwuemeka Aaron, emphasised that participating in or conducting elections contrary to the court’s judgment would be unlawful.
He urged citizens to disregard any announcements calling for local government elections on October 5, citing a Federal High Court judgment that halted the poll.
Aaron reiterated the party’s commitment to upholding the rule of law, adding that the RSIEC and the State government could not choose which court orders to obey or ignore.
