A chieftain of the All Progressive Congress, Kalu Agu, on Friday approached an Abuja High Court to seek an order of perpetual injunction restraining the party from proceeding with the Ward congress scheduled for July 31, and subsequent local government, State, Zonal congresses and the National Convention of the party.

In the suit marked CV/812/2021 dated July 29 and filed on Friday, the two defendants are the APC and Mai Mala Buni. In the court process seen by our correspondent, Agu is also praying the court to declare that the APC is bound to uphold its constitution, the 1999 Nigerian Constitution, and the Electoral Act in administering the affairs of the party.

He prayed to the court to determine whether the party can conduct a ward congress when there is no elected Ward Executive Committee of the party. Kalu also sought “an order of mandatory injunction setting aside any decision, act, steps, notifications taken or made out for the purpose of holding any ward, Local Government, State, Zonal Congresses or National Convention of the 18 Defendant directed at the election of officers of the 1st Defendant at any level of the political structure in Nigeria created by the Constitution of the 1st Defendant.
