Court Bars PDP From Interfering With Dan Orbih’s South-South Leadership by Kosiso12(op): 3:26pm On Apr 05, 2025
Court Bars PDP from Interfering with Dan Orbih’s South-South Leadership | #Politicsnigeria


The Federal High Court in Abuja has stopped the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) from interfering in the leadership of Dan Orbih and his team in the South-South region.

Justice Inyang Ekwo, who gave the ruling, said the PDP must not interfere in the work or leadership of the South-South Zonal Working Committee led by Orbih.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that the committee, backed by FCT Minister Wike was elected on February 22, 2025, in Calabar, Cross River State.

The court’s order will be valid until a final decision is made in the ongoing case, labelled FHC/ABJ/CS/505/2025, filed by Chief Dan Orbih and members of his committee.

Justice Ekwo also stopped another group led by Chief Emmanuel Ogidi, which was appointed by the PDP’s National Working Committee (NWC), from acting as leaders of the zone or parading as zonal committee.

The case was adjourned to Friday, April 11, 2025.

The leadership of political parties are internal affairs of the parties.

But the SC just ruled that who occupies what position is internal affairs and non-justiciable

Why does the judiciary enjoy making a mockery of themselves because of politicians

Seems justice is now for the highest drunkard

Until judges are removed if a certain number of their case is over tuned by a higher court we won't stop having this rubbish

Supreme Court just ruled that court can't interfere in the internal issue of a party yet this judge is giving this judgement?

I blame the NJC for this problem.
Any judge that interferes with supreme court pronouncemens
such as the internal affairs of a party should be suspended or expelled.

Even if they can't suspend judges, the plaintiff should be heavily fined minimum 100 million Naira if such
frivolous suits ever get to the supreme court. By the time one or two politicians gets burned, such cases
will no longer end up in court.

If not, politicians will continue will continue to bastardize the justice system
while important cases will be delayed due to political workloads of judges.

Nigeria fit make you craze grin!

Less than 48 hours ago, the highest court of the land ruled that it had no authority to adjudicate on the internal wranglings of any political party especially as it concerns leadership affairs, now a lower Abuja court is inflaming shoulders on a similar case in stark contradiction to that judgement.

Law is a very useless career in today's Nigeria!

People who are able to manipulate the Judiciary are far worse than the most hardened criminals and mass murderers.

I hereby predict today that PDP's Presidential primaries will be stopped by the courts...

Idiots running a party..

You gave an aggrieved party member, a lose canon "permission" to serve as a minister in the government of one of the most ruthlessly desperate Presidents ever!


Una dey learn work?

This man has vowed many times to work for Tinubu in 2027 and they are still petting him.

Wow!

Maybe they should just scrap the Federal and States HC along with the Court of Appeal and just allow only the SC rule on matters.

Re: Court Bars PDP From Interfering With Dan Orbih’s South-South Leadership by ogascomax: 5:57pm On Apr 05, 2025
The supreme court says party leadership should be controlled by their political parties based on the laws that govern the party. Also the leadership of the party which is the NWC should be the decision making of the party. What is this court injunction for again. Nigeria court is our problem currently. PDP never abused the court as it's done by APC otherwise Jonathan wouldn't have lost 2015 election.

Are you so daft that you don't know that Dan Orbih is the tool Wike is using to destabilize PDP in Edo State?
Re: Court Bars PDP From Interfering With Dan Orbih’s South-South Leadership by lapintoz: 6:39pm On Apr 05, 2025
I thought the Supreme Court just ruled that party leadership conflicts is beyond any court intervention. So the ruling is null and void
