The Court of Appeal sitting in lagos on Wednesday granted an Order which replaces Ben Ayade of the PDP With Emmanuel Ibeshi as candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Cross River State.

The panel of three Judges headed by M.M. Amadi ordered that the PDP does not have the constitutionl powers to withdraw Ibeshi rights to Vote and be Voted for, and hence Ayade was not a Candidate in the premise that he did not contest primaries.

The three judges in the panel unanimously agreed that in suit No CA/C/52/2019

The judge also went further to pronounce that candidate from the list submitted by PDP NWC should not be recognized by INEC.

Responding to the Order the Counsel to Ayade and others, Farouk Liman said “I am dissapointed with the order of court but it is in the interest of justice and our party have agreed to expeditiously handle the matter and bring the substantive matter to an end.”

Also responding, Counsel to the Ibeshi, Boni James SAN said, “the PDP did not follow due process before disqualifying Emmanuel Ibeshi. And therfore his was the substantive Flag Bearer of the PDP. That Ben Ayade
of PDP whose names was published by INEC as submitted to them by the National Working Committee of the PDP, remains null and void and that the court has given the respondents’ counsel up to 11 thMarch , 2019 to file their brief on the substantive case and the matter adjourned to Monday 24thMarch, 2019 for hearing.

Read to comprehend.. Sack and was replaced. That's the difference.

The judiciary is on overdrive


Killing and resurrecting political careers from the north to the south back2back.


I can bet every politician having pending cases in court but intending to contest on saturday are very jittery now. Even some must be having running stomach now.


Anyway, expecting PDP to confirm or debunk it.

Shameless junk propaganda.

Would be very interesting if true.
Sacking a sitting governor from recontesting.

I wouldn't mind it for the shock effect.

This indeed is an interesting time

Report of Appeal Court sacking Ayade is fake news- Aide

The Chief Press Secretary to Governor Ben Ayade of Cross River State, Mr Christian Ita, has described as fake news, reports trending on social media claiming the governor has been sacked by Appeal Court in Lagos as the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Saturday’s election.
Ita, in a statement issued on Wednesday said there was no such pending matter in the Appeal Court.
He maintained that the case instituted in a Federal High Court in Abuja by Mr Emmanuel Ibeshi was discontinued when he filed a legitimate notice of discontinuance and as such never went on appeal.
The report, he said, is the handiwork of political opponents who have been dazed by the reality that the governor’s re-election bid was a fait acompli.
The statement therefore, urged members of the public and the governor’s teeming supporters to disregard the fake report.
