PDP's Tanimu Turaki Plans Appeal Against Ibadan Court Judgment

Tanimu Turaki, the PDP's National Chairman, labeled an Ibadan court judgment as 'academic' and announced plans to appeal it. The judgment questioned the validity of the party's national convention held in Ibadan, Oyo State, on November 15, 2025.

Turaki's tenure expired on December 9, and a caretaker committee led by Moham Anyanwu was set up by Governor Wike's faction. The legal dispute involves the recognition of the Ibadan convention by INEC.

Turaki's faction seeks to appeal the judgment, emphasizing the need for a fair hearing and legal process. The case involves multiple court battles ahead of the 2027 elections, with Turaki's team actively pursuing legal remedies.

The PDP remains divided between Turaki's faction and Governor Wike's camp, with ongoing legal challenges shaping the party's leadership structure.
