The Court of Appeal in Port Harcourt, Rivers State has dismissed a suit filed by the suspended national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Uche Secondus.
Leading a three-man panel, Justice Haruna Tsammani found no merit in Mr Secondus’ appeal saying he voluntarily relinquished his office since he did not challenge his removal at ward and local government levels.
The court also granted PDP leave to proceed with its elective national convention scheduled for October 30 and October 31.
Secondus had filed the suit seeking, among others, to restrain the PDP from conducting its national convention which is scheduled to hold in Abuja on October 30 and 31.
