Secondus, Omehia, Opara Cleared to Attend PDP NEC Meetings After Court Ruling
Former National Chairman of the PDP, Uche Secondus, alongside former Governor Celestine Omehia and former Deputy Speaker, House of Reps, Austin Opara, have been granted clearance by the court to participate in the meetings of the National Executive Council (NEC) of the PDP.
This groundbreaking decision comes as the court nullified a previous judgment obtained by Nyesom Wike, controversially barring the three esteemed party leaders from participating in PDP NEC gatherings.
The New court ruling:
Acting Chairman
People’s Democratic Party
Alhaji Umar Damagum
