PDP NATIONAL CONVENTION NULLIFIED AS FEDERAL HIGH COURT RULES AGAINST TURAKI-LED NWC.
A Federal High Court in Ibadan has nullified the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Convention held on November 15, 2025, citing non-compliance with the party’s constitution and electoral laws.
Justice Uche Agomoh ruled that the Caretaker Committee led by Mohammed Abdulrahman and Senator Samuel Anyanwu is the only recognised National Working Committee of the PDP pending the conduct of a valid National Convention.
The court also barred the Turaki-led National Working Committee from parading themselves as national officers of the PDP.
The ruling is a significant development in the ongoing leadership crisis within the PDP, with implications for the party’s preparations for the 2027 general elections.
The nullification of the National Convention raises questions about the party’s future plans and standing in Nigerian politics.
The ruling is likely to have far-reaching implications for the PDP’s internal dynamics and its position in the country’s political landscape.
