 Wike Faction Seeks Court Order to Nullify PDP National Convention

A faction within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) led by former Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has approached a federal court seeking to nullify the party’s recent national convention. The group contends that the convention violated the party’s constitution and was marred by irregularities in the nomination process for national officers. Lawyers representing the Wike bloc argued that key procedural steps, including proper notification and adherence to electoral guidelines, were overlooked. The faction is demanding that the court declare the convention invalid and mandate a fresh, transparent electoral process. The PDP leadership has yet to issue an official response. Political analysts predict that the legal battle could intensify internal party divisions ahead of the 2027 general elections.
