PDP Governors Defy Court Orders, Attend Convention Amid Legal Battles

Four PDP governors, including Bala Mohammed and Seyi Makinde, arrived in Ibadan for the party's national convention despite conflicting court rulings. The move signals a show of solidarity within the party's governor bloc led by Damagum.

Legal battles between different high courts in Abuja and Ibadan have created confusion, with accusations of disobeying court orders and fueling crises within the party. INEC has decided not to monitor the convention pending legal resolutions.

Sule Lamido's lawsuit triggered the court rulings, alleging non-compliance with nomination deadlines.
