Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court in Abuja has invalidated the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) primary election that resulted in the selection of Asue Ighodalo as its gubernatorial candidate.
The primary, held on February 22, 2024, was annulled because 378 delegates who were supposed to participate were unlawfully excluded by the PDP.
Justice Ekwo invalidated the primary election during his judgment in a lawsuit filed by the disgruntled delegates.
