A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party faction led by Bauchi Governor Bala Mohammed on Tuesday sought a court order to stop the party and the Independent National Electoral Commission from annuling Thursday’s planned National Executive Council meeting.

The lawsuit, filed by a certain Imam Auwal at a Zamfara High Court in Gusau Judicial Division, appealed for an earlier injunction from Abuja Federal High Court Abuja barring the PDP from removing its acting National Chairman, Umar Damagum to be set aside.

As of the time of filing this report, it is however uncertain how the other faction loyal to the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike plans to react to the new development.
