PDP Ibadan Convention: Court Ruling Affirming Turaki's Leadership Inconsequential - Wike's Faction
The Oyo State High Court confirmed the legality of the PDP National Convention and ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission to recognize its outcomes.
- The Oyo State High Court, sitting in Ibadan, upheld the PDP convention and ordered INEC to recognize its outcomes.
- The suit filed last year by Musibau Adetunbi, SAN, led to interim orders on November 3 and 14, 2025, enabling the convention on November 15 and 16, 2025.
- The party welcomed the judgment as vindication that the Ibadan convention complied with the party constitution and federal law, and commended the Honourable Court for its courage, reaffirming faith in the judiciary.
- Opponents highlighted that INEC was not joined to the suit and therefore the PDP caretaker committee said on Friday the November 2025 convention remains invalid, calling the ruling ineffective.
- The ruling deepens a legal conflict because the same Oyo court permitted the Amala Convention on November 15 and 16, 2025 despite two valid Federal High Court judgments, and INEC was not joined.
