Court Rejects Sule Lamido's Bid to Halt PDP Convention in Abuja

The Federal High Court in Abuja has rejected former Jigawa Governor Sule Lamido's plea to stop the upcoming People's Democratic Party (PDP) National Convention. Lamido sought to block the event, but Justice Peter Lifu directed the PDP and INEC to explain why the request should be granted.

The court's ruling means the PDP convention will proceed as planned until further arguments are presented. The case is marked FHC/ABJ/CS/2299/2025 and involves a legal challenge to the internal procedures of the PDP convention.
