Parachoko:
A court can intervene if the Political Party does not follow It's Own Rule

It's the reason Wike's faction defeated Makinde's faction at the court
Where the a party failed to abide by its own constitution, an agrieved member can approach the Court to enforce and protect his rights thereby forcing the party to do the right thing.

..did the supreme court follow the party rules that said any party member that holds a position in the party and the person wants to contest for an election the person should resign from his position.. Samuel anyanwu that was national secretary of PDP wanted to contest for 2023 imo state governorship election and he resigned and Okoye took over the national secretary position and he was appointed as national secretary of PDP....but when Samuel anyanwu losed the governorship election in 2023 he came back to claim the position of national secretary of PDP after he has already resigned..so the thing caused problems in PDP.court cases and factions in PDP..wike was supporting Samuel anyanwu..this made PDP governors to defect to APC because of these national secretary of PDP court cases and factions but the supreme court did not follow the PDP constitution and rules and the supreme court said court have no jurisdiction over leadership problems in a party that the PDP members should settle their problems themselves.but up till now PDP could not settle their matters by themselves

Anyanwu should not have been able to come back if there was unity in PDP.

The crisis fester bcoz there's no father figure in PDP unlike in APC where no one challenge Tinubu even as National Leader before he became president.

Laws don't work like that. The law of the supersedes everything it covers, whether new or old.

The next thing ADC members should do is to take INEC to court and get the presiding judge to have INEC reinstate their positions while they settle the matter in-house.
Just imagine yourself, saying laws have retroactive effects. And you be analyst in your mind. Yinmu

So if I wake up tomorrow and claim to be the new chairman of ADC, INEC should just recognize me and that will be it?
You are creating anarchy in such situation.
The court of law should be where these issues are settled not be INEC personnel.

So if a party Chieftain mistakenly killed another party member at party campaign rally, it should be party affairs?

Illiteracy is truly a disease.

The fact you can even differentiate between internal party issues(civil case) and murder/manslaughter(criminal case) says a lot.

Y'all should learn how to stay silent on issues beyond your comprehension.

Then both the names of the original Chairman Bala and the hyjacker Chairman Mark should be on INEC portal side by side until they resolve the issues in-house right?

... wike that supposed to be the father figure..was supporting Tinubu for 2027 election and still supporting Tinubu for 2027 election... and Samuel anyanwu was loyal to wike..so wike used him to cause problems in the party .. for Samuel anyanwu to drag the national secretary position with Okoye and cause issues, factions and court cases in PDP..so as to hold and tie down PDP in favour of Tinubu and APC in 2027 election

Until judges and court officials stop taking jeeps and houses and lands from politicians.


Until then any law will be turned upside down. Even when it's clear.

When a judges receives this gifts from politicians it's difficult to do the right thing .


That must pay for this gifts , with judgements
