Delivering judgment, Justice Inyang Ekwo, said he found that the case of the plaintiff, Desmond Akawo, who is the chairman of the state excos, succeeded on merit.
Justice Ekwo held that the PDP and its national chairman did not deny Akawo’s averments.
The judge, who granted all Akawo’s reliefs, declared that the party and its national chairman, cannot unilaterally and without reasonable cause, dissolve the state’s excos who were democratically elected for a four-year period.
He also gave an order of injunction restraining them from appointing any person or group of persons as an interim caretaker committee in the state until May 22, 2024.
Justice Ekwo further gave an injunction order restraining the Independent National Electoral Commission from giving recognition or accepting any name as caretaker committee of the PDP in the state except those democratically elected and represented by Akawo in the suit.
