The Edo State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party on Thursday insisted that Dr Asue Ighodalo remains the party’s candidate for the 2024 elections, despite a judgment of a Federal High Court in Abuja ordering otherwise.
“The PDP is aware that certain elements, intimidated by the growing popularity of our candidate, Dr Asue Ighodalo, are spreading rumours about the nullification of his candidacy.“Let it be clear that Ighodalo’s candidacy as our flag bearer for the 2024 elections remains unchanged, and the judgment of the Federal High Court in Abuja has no bearing on his candidature.
The Guardian reports that Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Abuja High Court had on Thursday, July 4, 2024, voided the primary election, conducted on February 22, 2024, on the grounds that 378 delegates who were supposed to vote were unlawfully excluded by the PDP.
