"DESCRIBING THE ADC GOVERNORSHIP TICKET AWARDED TO GABRIEL PIDOMSON AS A 'CUNNING TICKET' IS DISRESPECTFUL." - AUGUSTUS FIRE AT MAGNUS ABE

The ADC Student Wings in Rivers State has criticized former senator and political leader, Senator Magnus Abe, over comments allegedly describing the governorship ticket awarded to Sir Gabriel Pidomson as a "cunning ticket" orchestrated by former Rivers State Governor, Rotimi Amaechi.

In a press statement signed by the Coordinator of the ADC Student Wings in Rivers State, Comrade Augustus Dumbari Prince, the group described the alleged remark as unfair, misleading, and disrespectful to the democratic processes of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

According to the statement, the emergence of Sir Gabriel Pidomson as the party's governorship candidate followed legitimate party procedures and reflected the collective decision of stakeholders within the party.

The student body expressed concern that Senator Abe's comments could undermine the credibility of the candidate and the integrity of the party without presenting any evidence to support the claims.

"Political disagreements should be based on facts, policies, and visions for the people of Rivers State, not on remarks intended to create suspicion and division," the statement read.

The ADC Student Wings further urged Senator Abe to pursue constructive dialogue within party structures if he has concerns regarding the process, rather than making public statements capable of creating disunity among party members.

The group reaffirmed its confidence in the leadership qualities, competence, and vision of Sir Gabriel Pidomson, describing him as a credible candidate capable of advancing the interests of Rivers people.

They also called on party faithful and supporters to remain focused on the collective objective of building a stronger and more prosperous Rivers State.

The statement concluded by reaffirming the group's commitment to democracy, fairness, and the continued progress of the ADC in Rivers State.

APPEAL COURT AFFIRMS ABDULRAHMAN-LED PDP CARETAKER COMMITTEE, DISMISSES TURAKI GROUP'S APPEAL

Image
In a significant legal victory for the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja has unanimously dismissed the appeal filed by the Turaki Group challenging the judgment of the Federal High Court (FHC), Ibadan, which recognized the Abdulrahman-led PDP Caretaker Committee. The appellate court upheld the earlier decision of the Federal High Court, which had, in January this year, declined to recognize the executive produced by the Turaki Group’s Ibadan convention and instead affirmed the legitimacy of the Abdulrahman-led Caretaker Committee. The caretaker committee had supervised the PDP National Convention that produced the current members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC). Delivering its judgment, the Court of Appeal held that the appeal had become merely academic and failed to present any live issue warranting judicial intervention, thereby dismissing the case in its entirety. The ruling effectively reinforces the l...

APPEAL COURT NULLIFY RIVERS APC WARD, LOCAL GOVERNMENT, AND STATE CONGRESSES THAT PRODUCED TONY OKOCHA

Image
The Court of Appeal has upheld a high court order nullifying the Rivers APC ward, local government, and state congresses that produced the Tony Okocha-led exco, which is loyal to FCT Minister Nyesom Wike.  Okocha had filed an appeal at the appeal court against the ex parte order of the high court which restrained the APC from conducting its congresses in the state, arguing that the high court had no jurisdiction in the matter and, as such, was not empowered to make the said order. However, the appellate court, in a decision delivered yesterday by Justice Elfreida Williams-Dawodu JCA, affirmed the jurisdiction of the high court in issuing that order and threw out the appeal for want of competence. Meanwhile, Ikenga Chibike, the publicity secretary of the Tony Okocha-led exco, has assured party members that there is no threat to the status of the exco pending full trial of the matter.  He also added that the party lawyers will study the full judgment and advise on th...
