Court Orders Jimi Agbaje To Stop Parading Himself As PDP Guber Candidate


A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja on Wednesday, ordered PDP and INEC to maintain status quo on the contentious Guber primaries which held in Lagos a week ago, in which Mr Jimi Agbaje emerged the party's governorship candidate for 2015 elections.

It will be recalled that after Agbaje was named the winner, fellow contestant, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro described the election as a "Sham" after the total number of votes cast, 863 was higher than the total number of accredited delegates, 806.
He then took the matter to court.

The court has however, fixed 23 December for INEC and PDP to appear before it, and as such, forbade Agbaje, the acclaimed winner to stop parading himself as the party's governorship candidate till the hearing of the case.
