Our Convention Holds Despite Justice Abang's Inferior Interim Order: PDP by stephenduru: 8:32pm On Aug 15, 2016

Re: Court Suspends PDP Convention…Our Convention still holds as scheduled

Our attention has been drawn once again to another act of judicial recklessness by the Honourable Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice Okon Abang of the purported suspension of the PDP National Convention holding in Port Harcourt, Rivers on Wednesday the 17 of August 2016.

We wish to however state that a Federal High Court in Port Harcourt Rivers State has earlier in the day given a comprehensive Order wherein the Honourable Judge specifically ordered the PDP to proceed with the convention as scheduled without hindrance. Indeed his lordship while given the Order mandated all relevant agencies including The Police, DSS and INEC to cooperate with the Party in organizing a hitch free National Convention.

You may also wish to note that the Federal High Court in Port Harcourt, Rivers State gave an Interlocutory Order while Justice Okon Abang, Abuja, gave an Interim Order. The Order of Port Harcourt is clearly superior and earlier in time to the Interim Order given by Justice Okon Abang. In the light of the above, The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as a law abiding Party is obeying the Order of the Port Harcourt, Federal High Court until set aside by any competent Court of jurisdiction.

In view of the above, the 2016 Repeat National Convention of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will continue as scheduled as we welcome all Delegates, Party leaders, other critical stakeholders, INEC monitoring team and other friends of PDP to Port Harcourt, Rivers State while wishing all our members and supporters a successful National Convention.

PDP is very intent on starting the 2nd cycle of the self destruction that created the legal maze it has found itself.

They have forgotten that this is not the PDP era when very clear judgements are disregarded by the state, who then expect another trial to explain the verdict of the previous trial.

PDP should proceed with the Convention, hold the elections and let Nigerians judge whose side the Government supports.
We have two judgements from courts of coordinate jurisdiction and PDP is not bound by Abuja High Court order having earlier gotten an injunction from PHC. Abang Okon is not an Appeal Court judge hence has no right to suspend Portharcourt High Court Injunction.

He played this same game with Dr Ikpeazu who then frustrated his judgement using a state high court and nothing has happened than high court appeal, so shall it be with this convention.

Should the Law Enforcement Agencies and INEC cooperate with PDP in this convention, then Buhari will be free from every allegation that he wants to destroy PDP but if otherwise, it will be known to Nigerians that Buhari and APC are behind Justice Okon Abang's recent judicial recklessness and contradictory rulings.

But does the court have a right to cancel the convention of a political party?

Are they posing any security threat to the existing government?

Our Judges a times I no no wetin to talk about them.

Maybe the person below me might say what the person above me may have failed to say
