The Appeal Court sitting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, on Friday, dismissed the suit filed by embattled chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Uche Secondus challenging the forthcoming convention of the party.
Secondus, in an appeal marked CA/PH/339, had asked the court to restrain PDP from conducting its national convention slated for October 30 and 31, 2021.
The embattled former chairman was edged out following his feud with Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State.
Secondus had through his Lawyer, Tayo Oyetubo, prayed the court to suspend the convention and grant him the right to preside over the exercise.
But on Friday, the court set aside Secondus appeal.
All the three judges led by Justice Haruna Tsammani affirmed the ruling without any dissenting voice.
