Channels TelevisionThe Court of Appeal sitting in Calabar, the Cross River State capital, has ordered a stay of execution on the Federal High Court judgement, which ordered the delisting of Senator John Owan-Enoh as the governorship flag bearer of the All Progressives Congress in Cross River State.
Senator Owan-Enoh and the Minister of Niger Delta, Usani Usani, are both in contention for the party’s ticket for Cross River State governorship seat. He, however, granted the Ochala faction of the party leaves to appeal the judgment of the Federal High Court, which had on February 11 recognised the Etim John faction of the APC as the authentic leadership of the party in the state.
