Court Overturns APC Congresses In Rivers State

The Rivers State High Court, sitting in Port Harcourt has nullified the respective May 19, 20, and 21 ward, local government and state congresses of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Rivers state.

The judgment was handed down by Justice Chiwendu Nwogu in his ruling on Wednesday.

Nwogu also submitted that the process leading to the emergence of Mr Ojukaye Flag-Amachree as Rivers Chairman of APC was fraudulent.

He subsequently directed the APC to return to the status quo of May 11, 2018, pending the determination of the substantive suit.

The matter was thereafter adjourned until June 26 for further hearing.
