An ex parte application seeking to restrain the Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Rivers State, Aaron Chukwuemeka, with other executives of the party was today declined by a High Court sitting in Port Harcourt.
Justice, Stephen Jumbo refused to grant the order in the application filed by Nelson Dike, Edwin Woko and two others who claim to be authentic state executives of the party.
The case was adjourned to December 10, 2024, for hearing on the substantive motion, after the judge directed the plaintiffs to serve notice on Chukwuemeka, the PDP National Chairman, and other parties involved.
Edwin after the court session said,“Our application before honorable Justice Jumbo is explicit.
“We are going to the court to restrain honorable Aaron Chukwuemeka and his co-travelers from parading themselves forthwith as the excos or executives of Rivers State PDP.
“That my own exco, Edwin Woko, we are the valid authentic exco members of the Rivers State PDP.
“So, we are praying that Aaron Chukwuemeka and his co-travelers, having completed their four years tenure, they should pack their load and go, and allow this party to have a fresh air.”
