PDP Proceeds with Convention Despite Legal Challenges in Ibadan

The People's Democratic Party (PDP) is moving forward with its national convention in Ibadan, Oyo State, following a recent Supreme Court ruling allowing the party to conduct its internal affairs without judicial interference. Despite objections and legal battles, loyalists of PDP's national chairman, Umar Iliya Damagum, are determined to proceed.

Former Jigawa Governor Sule Lamido has denied reports of abandoning legal battles against the party. Security measures have been heightened in Ibadan ahead of the convention, with delegates arriving and preparations underway.
