(PDP).

The
ruling, which came in a split decision, where two judges, Justice B. G.
Sanga and Justice A. A. Gumel delivered judgement against the
Makarfi-led PDP while the third judge, Justice T. S. Orji-Abadua, ruled
against Sheriff, who is the first appellant in the matter.
At
least, four lower courts of concurrent jurisdiction had given
conflicting judgements on the controversy surrounding the leadership of
PDP, a development landed the matter at the Appeal Court.
It may be worth recalling that there had been power tussle between
Ali Modu Sheriff and Ahmed Makarfi over the PDP leadership seat, a
development which occurred after the Ali-Modu Sheriff faction, was
dissolved by some leaders of the party at a national convention held in
Port Harcourt in 2016.Pictures below show the victorious Ali Modu Sheriff as he arrives home from the hearing that reinstates him as Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
