The high court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja on Wednesday ordered acting chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Ali Modu Sheriff to vacate the seat, faulting the process through which he emerged as the party chairman.
The FCT High Court presided over by Justice Valentine Ashi (court 29) nullified the 2014 PDP Constitution Amendment upon which Sherif was appointed PDP Chairman.
The court however didn't specifically mention Sheriff’s name. It made an order restraining all persons who became national officers of the party by virtue of the amended Article 47, Rule 6 of the party’s constitution, from further parading themselves in the said capacities.
The judge nullified the amendment of the said provision which he ruled was done in violation of mandatory provisions of Article 66 (2) and (3) of the party’s constitution.
