A dramatic twist was introduced into the People's Democratic Party (PDP) presidential primaries yesterday as less than 24 hours to the epoch making event, an Enugu High Court granted an interim order restraining the party's national chairman, Okwesilieze Nwodo, from "parading himself as chairman of the party."


However, Mr. Nwodo's counsel, Ilochi Okafor (SAN), immediately filed an objection at the Federal High Court, Abuja. The initial order granted by the presiding judge, Reuben Onuorah, ruled that Mr. Nwodo should stop functioning as chairman and enjoying any benefits from the position, pending the determination of motion on notice for interlocutory injunction.

The suit was filed in June last year shortly after Mr. Nwodo emerged as PDP's chairperson. It was filed by Collins Amalu, a registered member of the party from Ngwo-Uno ward in Enugu State. He claimed that Mr. Nwodo was not a bonafide member of the party due to alleged irregularities in the manner of his return to the party after his bitter exit in 2003.


Acrimonious exit

The argument for sacking him was based on his failure to follow due process in returning to the party.

"At the time he left the PDP and sought to return to the party, he did not re-register as a member of the party and was not issued a membership card in line with the PDP Constitution. This fact was publicly confirmed by Nwodo himself and enquiries made also confirmed that. Based on that, he is not entitled to hold the position, perform any function, or enjoy the benefits from the party," the judgement said.

The PDP had last year welcomed all aggrieved members who had left the party in a huff. Such returnees included former vice president, Atiku Abubakar, who went through a re-registration process in his ward in Adamawa State before been readmitted into the party. Mr. Nwodo, according to the plaintiff, did not undergo this process.

While granting the order, the judge ruled that the defendant should stop "exercising the rights, powers and or function or enjoy the privileges attached to the office of the chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, pending the determination of the motion on notice for interlocutory injunction."

The suit was further adjourned to January 31, for hearing.

However, in a preliminary objection against the suit calling for the removal, Mr. Nwodo, through his counsel, who was absent at the sitting in Enugu, argued at the Federal High Court, Abuja, that the appointment of his client was totally an internal affair of the party. He further argued that the court lacked the jurisdiction to entertain the matter, as the plaintiff had abused the court process in the matter. The presiding judge, Daniel Kolawole, adjourned the matter till January 28.

Mr. Nwodo, a former national secretary of the PDP, was appointed as the chairman by the National Executive Committee of the party in June 2010 following the resignation of the then national chairman, Vincent Eze Ogbulafor. Mr. Nwodo left the party in 2003, but returned earlier in 2010 when the party welcomed back all its aggrieved members.


‘Not a sack'

Renowned lawyer, Itse Sagay (SAN), said the order was not a sack, explaining that "someone just filed an exparte motion for him to be regarded as not been duly re-registered into the party and the judge simply affirmed that."

He condemned the judge saying, "it is a very suspicious judgement. It is one of those Enugu rulings that will end up getting the judge fired because the judge acted on hearing of just one side and acted very partisan."

Mr. Sagay wonders why a judge will give such a ruling just hours to the ruling party's presidential primaries.

"He must be a very crooked judge to have given such a judgment filed by some people who just do not want the man involved in the politics in Enugu," he said.

On whether the ruling nullifies past issues moderated by the chairman in the last six months, Mr. Sagay stated that "this will not affect his past. If he chooses to obey the ruling he might just have to step down, as this ruling can prevent him from overseeing the primaries today, and will be restored back. In any case, he might not be bound by the ruling until he is personally served the court rulings."

However, Ike Abonyi, Mr. Nwodo's spokesman, said they have not been served any court paper for now and cannot speak further on the matter.


The initial suit

The counsel to the plaintiff, Justina Offiah ( SAN), said that the plaintiff filed a motion exparte for injunction to restrain Mr. Nwodo from functioning as the party chairman, arguing that his appointment as the party leader violated Section 85 of the Electoral Act of 2006 and the party's constitution. He added that the party's action regarding the appointment of Mr. Nwodo as its national chairman also contravened Sections 221, 222, 223, 224 as well as 225 of the 1999 Constitution. A motion on notice of interlocutory injunction was also filed to that effect.

Ms. Offiah said the court, at the first appearance in December, declined to take the motion exparte motion on notice was served through a publication in Vanguard newspapers. By December 20, the defence counsel, Mr. Okafor, indicated that he required time to file a further reply to the address of the plaintiff's counsel. This was vigorously contested on December 20, 2010 and the ruling adjourned to January 12.

Postponed till JULY 2011, but i am not sure he is distabilized by Ruggedman reply, i guess he is getting more tracks for his Versus, recently 9ice and Olamide did a collabo,so i guess the track will be on the VERSUS ALBUM,

which kain july

The track (with olamide), according to olamide's tweet will be on olamide's album titled RAP SO DI.
The collabo according to me confirms that 9ice has not dumped coded tunes despite the fact that chiefo has been making most of his recent beats

I'm using Airtel's BIS after using zain lite (100mb) for the past two months. I must say here that the BIS is crap. My fear for glo is that people will flood their network and it might become slow eventually. For all who care to listen, AIRTEL'S BIS IS CRAP. If glo remains fast by the end of february and airtel refuses to improve, I'll then swith to glo

Dclique:
Nope!!. The best you can get is Edge. But its cool if you are not the type who likes to download.

+1

you have to visit the nearest Airtel shop close to you. I activated mine 3 days ago, before then I had called customer over and over again but they couldn't get it to work. I went to their shop on Oba Akran in Ikeja and It started working immediately. Spare some time and visit the closest Airtel shop to you.

Akainzo:
I think you missed the main point of that regulation. Yes, the Driver's license, vehicle Particulars and Insurance documents are valid across the federation, however, the law allows any state to demand or prescribe any other requirements for road usage within its territory. Therefore what Lagos State is proposing is not illegal but within their rights.

Remember the case of the mobile communications masts, Lagos State does not have a right to grant mobile license but has the authority to regulate thongs within its territory. If Lagos State feels that for safety reasons, all tanker drivers operating within Lagos State needs to have some form of safety clearance, then they can enforce such. All that means is this, for a while there might be fuel scarcity, but once other marketers realize how much business is in Lagos, they would comply and Lagos roads and inhabitants would be safer for it.

THANK YOU!!!!!

The OP is obviously anti-fashola. The thread topic is misleading.

I got Terry, Vector and OD's albums. I'll try to upload on monday for anyone who wants

Dcn Austin Azubuike is dead, got info from his website. I benefited from his free seminars though, regardless of what u guys say he was a good man.

I think some people here have argued in his favour already, lol.

You may perhaps have read about the Federal Government's decision to lift the ban on certain imports that were previously prohibited. Some of you expressed concern about this act and its ability to negatively affect the nation's economy. In the next few days the minister of finance will give a detailed explanation of the measure with particular focus on each item and why the ban was lifted. To you my friends on facebook who have asked, I have a duty to offer an explanation even before the detailed brief from the Minister.

Today makes 210 days since I was sworn in to serve you on the 6th of May 2010. One very important task every president does is to read daily reports some of which are confidential. On a daily basis I have to take decisions in the best interest of our country based on the information available to me. I have read reports in this regard and noticed that irrespective of the ban on these items, they still find their way into Nigeria as a result of smuggling. Unpatriotic persons have capitalised on some of the lapses in our enforcement strategies by making use of neighbouring ports to import these items and ship them overland to Nigeria. The result today is that our economy is worse for it even as we are losing billions each month on duties that ought to have accrued to government. The objectives of the ban (which is to stimulate local production) is not being met. We are thus losing vital income that could bave been directed into critical sectors such as education, health and critical infrastructure.

Viewed in proper perspective what we have been doing is tantamount to pouring water into a basket and hoping to retain water!. Thus we have resolved to work on ways to tighten our border controls by investing in our Customs and Excise department and bringing them up to task in the interest of our Country. We cannot surender our economy to smugglers. Our goal is to empower our people as we embark on this journey of self-suficiency and economic ascendancy. Pending when our initiatives come on stream we have decided to adopt a multi-pronged approach to stemming the billions we lose to unpatriotic persons and also support the rise of local industry by providing the needed incentives for local production and discourging smuggling.
